Help I made an error on my apprentice oyster card and apprentice NUS card

The start date is 3rd April 2023 and end date is 30th September 2024, it is apparently 18 months but that doesn't total 18 months to me, end date would be 3rd October 2024. Are my apprentice oyster cards and my NUS apprentice cards still valid?

To be fair, most people don't check the date when you use your student card, so I would just use it now and save yourself money.

Other useful discounts for students:

I would contact NUS and your education institution on the expiry dates, or just renew for new student cards before your current ones expire.

For the apprentice and NUS cards, I put the end date down as 3rd October 2024 and the actual end date is 30th September 2024 so it is fine as it is just an extension of 3 days, or the card will automatically be invalid after I finish my apprenticeship on 30th September 2024. I am not going to say anything regarding the end date because I am only 90% happy with it (not happy about male dominance and I am a female) so I wouldn't want to work for longer than that, even if it is just 3 days.

While the card will have expired, you can still technically use it in places that accept student discounts.
I forgot to mention the 16-25 railcard discount too: https://www.16-25railcard.co.uk/
