Highly doubtful, since it's more than a month after the purchase now. You could go in and talk to a manager who might let you, but I wouldn't count on it.
PS, since I know someone is going to bring this up; technically the machine and the iPod have to be on the same receipt for the receipt to be eligible for the rebate. The manager can print a new receipt with the machine's model number, change the price to $0, and sell the iPod concurrently.

Not really. Basically the back to school promo is a widely publicized event that occurs annually. While there is a chance it would not be a promo year after year it has been very consistent for quite a few years.
You could ask Apple but don't get your hopes up. Do you qualify for a student discount?
Miles, it's May 31st, we're not quite at the "more than a month" mark.

I used the help service on the Apple website to ask this Q. I also directly asked someone at the Apple store. They both told me that they won't give the free ipod touch unless the MBP purchase occurred within 2 weeks prior to the deal (their cut off date right now is May 11 and on)... :-/
I did the MAC + iPod Touch deal here in Japan. Here you basically got a credit for $200; an iPod Touch 8GB free (or any other iPod), or you could up-grade to a 32/64GB with the cost difference - I got a 32GB for $100, faster version 3 processor and headphones WITH mic (can use wifi and Skype!).
My sister is getting an educational discount in the coming week with the iPod and wonder if she's stuck with the 8gb or can up-grade with the USA program?
Anyone in the know?

I already bought a new BMP on May 1 with educational discount. Is there any way I am still eligible for the free ipod touch?? This makes me sad

Had you come here and looked, or simply looked elsewhere at the past dates for the BTS promotion, you would have seen that it has begun at roughly the same time for the past several years, trending towards an earlier date as time has passed. You should have conducted more research and I don't see Apple doing anything for you.
