Hello Azure Support Team,

I am writing to request a modification to my Azure for Students subscription's allowed deployment regions.

Current Issue: I am currently unable to create Virtual Machines due to conflicting regional restrictions on my account:

Assignment 1 (root/tenant level): Restricted to France Central only

Assignment 2: Allowed regions are ["spaincentral", "switzerlandnorth", "germanywestcentral", "italynorth", "polandcentral"]

These two assignments have no overlapping regions, which prevents me from deploying any resources.

Requested Action: Please add "francecentral" to my "Allowed resource deployment regions" list in Assignment 2, so it aligns with the tenant-level restriction.

Additional Context: Other students in my program have "francecentral" included in their Azure for Students allowed regions and can create VMs without issues. I would like to have the same configuration to complete my coursework.

Reference: This issue is similar to the one described here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/5709759/azure-for-students-cannot-create-vm-due-to-conflic

Thank you for your assistance in resolving this matter.

Best regards,
