You verify your student status, and DELL gives you a 10% coupon code to use in the cart.
If your college is registered with the store, an OTP on your college email is enough and the coupon comes instantly. Otherwise, you must also upload a valid student ID. Once the ID is verified, the coupon reaches you by email. Coupons on this route are issued Monday to Saturday, 9 AM to 8 PM, except public holidays. Parents buying for a student are eligible too.
Each email ID gets one coupon, and it covers a single item: a laptop, desktop, monitor or accessory. Some models are left out, and the cart shows straight away whether yours is covered. The coupon also takes the order's only code slot, so if you hold another promo code, use whichever one cuts your total more.
Pro Tip: The coupon lasts 30 days from the day it's issued, so generate it only after you've picked your laptop.
