Why people still search for Prime Student
Prime Student was the familiar name for years, so old articles, bookmarks and search habits remain. Amazon's current public pages use Prime for Young Adults and describe a broader audience.
The practical change
- 18-24 and not in college
- May qualify through age
- Higher-education student
- May qualify through student status
- Trial
- Currently advertised as 6 months for eligible new members
- Paid price
- $7.49 monthly or $69 annually
Do not choose between two labels
You generally do not need to hunt for a separate legacy Student plan. Start with Amazon's current Young Adults offer, sign in to the account you plan to use, and let the current verification flow determine eligibility.
