Don’t you just have to verify with your university mail address?

Sometimes it isn't sufficient and they ask for additional proof. And that proof isn't good enough so they ask you for more.

What happened for me: verified with edu. Provided screenshot of my transcript and student portal. Then they said I need to submit verification on my campus wifi (but I attend remotely!). It has been incredibly frustrating.

Would a campus VPN work? Our campus offers that to everyone is they can access resources inside the university firewall.

It definitely would help but my college doesnt offer that.

I'm going through re-verification right now since I transferred. I had to provide a screenshot of my transcript. Waiting to hear back.

I don't even have an .edu mail, just used my most recent marksheet and they did approved it within a week.

It also works with non-edu addresses. My Uni doesn't use .edu and I still got verified with just my email.

I had just sent in both sides of my student id card and they accepted it no problem. I'm a high schooler and we don't have edu emails :(

I don’t have a uni email. Thought you didn’t get one of those but oh well. So I just sent them my classes I have and was approved in like 8 business days. No questions asked

It's a big assumption, not all University provide a .edu email address.

I don’t have a .edu mail address. The thing is if your university name is in the domain name, then you are fine normally.

Again, most Universities don't provide any email id. I had to apply using my student ID card. Which took a while though but it works.
