I have noticed that some of those programs also work for other countries' TLDs, for instance, .edu.pl for Poland.

- whereistimbo 6y agoTIL. Still there are only 17 countries with .edu as second level domain. Unfortunately Indonesia doesn't have .edu second level domain, I'm stuck with .ac.id
- OJFord 6y agoIn the UK we use .ac.uk, it was (when I was a student) my experience that places that say '.edu discount' generally also accepted my '.ac.uk' - I only recall one that didn't, and that was resolved after a support email. I wonder if .edu is more strictly controlled in America though, because I still have an alumni.*.ac.uk address, which presumably anyone with automated handling of it would still accept. (Unless I suppose that's also common over there and they filter it out, and hope for no Mr Al Umnus from Scunthorpe.)
- rswail 6y agoac stands for academic so it has the same function as a 2LD as edu.
- ajdlinux 6y agoIn my experience as an Australian, if a company sells its product globally and doesn't have complicated per-country sales channels then they usually offer their student discounts program to more than just US students.
