It's still a ways from back-to-school season, but that's not stopping Apple from offering students a way to save on some new tech in time for a new semester.
Starting now until September 25, Apple is offering special savings and a free pair of Beats headphones to qualifying purchasers picking up a new Apple device for school use.
On the computer side, customers can save up to $300 on a MacBook, MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, iMac, Mac Pro, or Mac Mini. Users looking to upgrade can also trade in their current Mac for up to $1,500 in credit towards a new machine.
For those looking for something more portable, Apple is also shaving $20 off in savings on the iPad, iPad Pro, and iPad Mini 4.
Regardless of if you go Mac or iPad, both lineups are eligible for the free Beats phones, which include either the Beats Solo3, Powerbeats 3, or BeatsX.
Who's eligible?
According to Apple's terms, these promotions apply to staff and faculty of K-12 institutions and, of course, students attending college. That said, homeschooling parents or parents making the purchase for their college-bound children are also eligible.
Qualifying purchases can be made at participating brick-and-mortar Apple Stores, Apple's Online Education Store, authorized campus stores, and Apple's 1-800-MY-APPLE hotline.
Finally, Apple is also offering college-headed students special $4.99/month pricing on its Apple Music streaming service, complete with a bonus summer-themed playlist.
It seems Apple knows the true value of its student sale lie in the discounted Apple Music subscription and free Beats phones — ask anyone who's done their share of all-nighters and they'll testify to the value of a good pair of headphones and better playlist. But hey, a cheaper computer is nice too.
