Apple now requires verification for education discounts in the US

The company closed a longstanding loophole that allowed anyone to get
education perks.

The US Apple Store now requires buyers to verify their status via UNiDAYS to
be able to purchase MacBooks, iPads and other devices from its education
portal. The tech giant's education discount typically knocks off 10 percent
from a device's original retail price. It applies to currently enrolled and
newly accepted college or university students, as well as teachers and
faculty/staff at a school for any grade level.

Apple doesn't require its customers in the US to verify their status unlike
its stores for other locations such as the UK that have long required
UNiDAYS authentication.

I wonder why it took so long to close this! It was so easy to buy Macs
cheaper!
