In order to provide immediate access to the Github Student Developer Pack, we need to verify that you're a student. To do this, we verify if you have participated in one of the following programs within the last 6 months:

If you have only participated in the Discord community, we cannot verify that you are a student, and you will not be eligible for immediate access. School-oriented programs including CodeDay CS Fest, CodeCup, and the Big Data Challenge also do not enable us to verify that you're a student.

If you think you qualify for immediate access, please verify that you're logged into the same CodeDay account as you used for your recent participation.

Even if you don't qualify through CodeDay, you can still apply for the Github Student Developer Pack directly. Students with school-issued emails are typically approved within a few days.
