How to deliver GitHub Education benefits to your students

Students at your school can quickly claim their GitHub Education benefits by visiting a unique web address. By visiting that address, GitHub will verify the student's academic status with your school and instantly deliver their benefits to them.

Your school can create a unique web address for each student by including three things in it:

1. school_id: Your school’s unique identifier, provided by GitHub.

2. student_id: The individual student’s unique identifier, defined by your school.
