Sprint Student Discount Guide

Sprint is a popular choice for wireless plans in the U.S. due to the fact they offer reasonable rates on “all you can eat” unlimited data plans and high-end devices such as the Palm Pre, HTC Touch 2 and Samsung Moment.  But if you’re a student and strapped for cash, it’s still pretty pricey to have to pay the $99 Simply Everything plan for unlimited talk and data or the Everything Data plan that offers unlimited data and 450 minutes of talk time at $69.99.  Luckily Sprint has a student discount for many universities in the U.S. that can score you up to 15% off of a Sprint wireless plan.

Here’s how to get the Sprint Student discount:

1. First, go to this website: http://www.evpdiscount.com/
2. Type in your school email address in order to find out if Sprint offers a group discount to students and employees for your school.
3. If Sprint does offer a student discount for your school it will redirect you to a site like this that exists for the University of Kentucky:
4. Once on the site you can sign up for a new plan with Sprint (requires a 2-year commitment) or if you have an existing plan apply the discount to the plan you have.  For a sample of the rates you get, click on the image below:
   As you can see, the Everything Data 900 plan (900 minutes of talk, unlimited data) drops to $76.49/month with the discount applied and you can get a 450 minute voice plan for $33.99/month.

Offers vary by school and employer for the Sprint student and employee discount so some may get a better deal than others.  Either way, it’s worth checking into whether your school or employer offer a group discount with Sprint as it can really save you a lot of money on a monthly bill.
