If anyone here has taken advantage the ADC student discount, does the Apple Store absolutely require you to send a fax of your class schedule and photo ID before they finished processing your order. Do they keep you in 'Processing your order' status until they receive the info from you?:confused:

In addition, we request that students fax a copy of student identification AND proof of current class registration in developer-related courses. Apple reserves the right to refuse access to this offer by non-students and/or non-developers.


Thats what it says on the site. I would imagine they'd be pretty strict about enforcing it, you are after all getting a 10%-20% discount on products.

You know I got my iBook under the Apple Student Store, but my aunt paid for it. Hopefully that won't cause any trouble...:confused:

The normal education discount is not so strict.. but this is talking about the Apple Student Developer discount, which is much much stricter.

I ended up cancelling my ADC Student Discount order for the mid-range iBook and ordering it from ClubMac.com instead. When you figure in taxes, the ADC Student Discount is not that great a deal since they charge sales tax in all 50 states (well, the ones that have sales tax, anyway). Plus, ClubMac.com threw in 256MB of extra RAM for $40 and also threw in a printer that was free after rebate. Plus, from what I understand people who ordered from the Apple Store are still waitng for their iBooks, whereas I got mine on Tuesday :D
