Hello, @Gabriela Pinto Olsen !

What is required for an Azure for Students account?

There are specific requirements for an Azure for Students account but from your description, it sounds like you need to verify the account through your school's email address and not the outlook account:

Azure for Students is available only to students who meet the following requirements. You must affirm that you are age 18 or older and attend an accredited, degree-granting two-year or four-year educational institution where you’re a full-time student. You must verify your academic status through your organization’s email address. This offer is not available for use in a massive open online course (MOOC) or in other professional trainings from for-profit organizations.

You can also check with your school administrator to ensure that the school email address has been validated and is active.

For anyone without an eligible school email address, you can always look into creating an Azure free account.
