    Are A-Level Students eligible for the Photoshop student discount edition?
    Self explanatory title, I'm not sure if it's a) university students only and b) excludes further education.

    Im going to say no. Generally its only further education students that get it. Otherwise everyone and their friends would be getting it, which doesn't make very good business sense

    Also, google it.

    Googled it. Took me less that 1 minute http://www.adobe.com/ap/education/st...ity-guide.html. No, highschoolers don't get it.

    The link you sent me to actually DID specify that secondary and primary school students are eligible, so I don't quite know what you're referring to.

    Nor does it say anywhere how the UK fits into their scheme.

    I find it slightly curious that you linked the Asia Pacific guidelines.

    This link is the one applicable to the UK, and states that primary and secondary students are eligible.

    Yes, if you are enrolled in an accredited public or private primary or secondary school providing full-time instruction.

    Am I eligible?

    To qualify for a student discount, you must be enrolled in one of the following:

    • University or college — accredited public or private university or college (including community, junior, or vocational college) that grants degrees requiring not less than the equivalent of two years of full-time study*
    • Primary or secondary school — accredited public or private primary or secondary school providing full-time instruction*
    *Accredited schools are those that are recognized by the Ministry of Education or an equivalent government body.

    Yes, you should be eligible for the student edition - my friend bought (yeah, bought) the CS5 Design Premium with a student discount in year 10 (last year) but I'm gonna have to ask him which website he got it from, he never had any problems when buying it so I assume it's OK
