Listen up, HC Readers! Your student ID or .edu email is a HUGE asset. If you’re anything like me and a total shopaholic, your student status can provide access to a ton of huge discounts with shopping, entertainment, technology, and more! Here are my top student discounts and how to make the most of them:
- Spotify and Hulu
-
Spotify Premium offers a deal to students that includes Spotify Premium and Hulu for just $6 a month. For non-students, the total for these subscription services is a whopping $18. Hulu also offers an independent deal that gives students to Hulu for just $2 a month.
- Amazon Prime Student
-
As I’m sure you know, Amazon Prime is a HUGE lifesaver, but it is also a little bit on the pricey side. As a student, you can get Amazon Prime free for 6 months. Then, the price of Prime goes to $69 a year which is half the cost of a normal prime subscription.
- Chegg
-
Chegg can be a massive help with homework and exams, but it isn’t cheap! Through the site Student Beans, you can get 25% of your first month of Chegg.
- Alo Moves

Alo Moves is an amazing site offering thousands of at home workouts, ranging from cardio to pilates to dance. Alo Moves offers students a two week free trial and a subscription costs $13 a month after that.
