  • Adobe’s own India route β€” the college writes from its official institutional address to Adobe’s education mailbox, naming the institution, its address, its accreditation body and the number of licences it needs; free licences are one per head, and a Federated ID comes first β€” which Google Workspace or Microsoft’s free education plan hands the college.
  • Instant, or up to ten business days β€” Microsoft’s academic check answers on a school email within seconds in most cases.
  • Government-recognised and degree-awarding β€” Google’s own criteria for a free institution, reviewed in one to two weeks.
  • Also free to the college β€” Unity’s education grant, verified within 48 hours Β· JetBrains classroom seats Β· Autodesk’s 3,000 institutional subscriptions.
  • What refuses a small college β€” Canva’s education programme is primary and secondary schools only; training centres and non-degree bodies are turned away by name.

:high_voltage: three moves

  • fill page 1 this week β€” enrol, and keep what comes back
  • hand page 2 to the person who signs, printed
  • photograph the student card flat, both sides

Two pages, one desk, one signature β€” and the seat is on the roll with your name on it.
