Education Discount Calculator (student price vs regular price for laptops & tablets)

How it works

Effective price = education price × (1 − card discount) − value of gifts you would really use + extra costs. Saving = regular price − effective price. Count a gift only at what you would pay for it yourself; a gift you would never buy is worth nothing to you. Makers’ education stores (for example Apple’s and Samsung’s) set their own eligibility rules — check them before you buy. Independent calculator, not affiliated with any maker.

FAQ

Is the education price always the cheapest?

Not always — seasonal sales, card promotions or refurbished models can beat it. Enter the best regular-store deal as the regular price to compare fairly.

Who is eligible?

Usually students, parents buying for students and teachers, but each maker sets its own rules and may ask for proof.
