    Hello Raju Kaluri

    It sounds like you’re trying to sign up for one of the Azure student offers (free student starter or Azure for Students) but after entering your details you get a “YOU DO NOT ACCESS” message. Let’s troubleshoot:

    Verify you’re using the right offer

    • Azure for Students Starter (no credit card, limited free services, renewable each year): https://azure.microsoft.com/offers/ms-azr-0144p/ Check eligibility and verification
      - You must be a K-12 student (Starter) or a full-time higher-ed student (Azure for Students)
      
         - Verify your academic status using your school-issued email (or via GitHub Student Developer Pack if your institution uses GitHub): [https://signup.azure.com/studentverification?offerType=1](https://signup.azure.com/studentverification?offerType=1)
      
            - If you sign up via GitHub, sign in with your GitHub user ID (not your email) and make sure your primary email in GitHub matches the one you’ll use for Azure: [https://github.com/login](https://github.com/login)
      
            Common blockers
      
               - You’ve already used an Azure free trial or student offer before (only one per person)
      
                  - Your school’s domain isn’t in the supported list or your domain email isn’t yet verified
      
                     - You’re accidentally signing up under a Pay-As-You-Go or other offer
      
                     Next steps to try
      
                        - Clear browser cache or try an incognito/private window
      
                           - Sign in directly at the student-verification link above
      
                              - If you have a GitHub pack, follow the “Sign in with GitHub” flow precisely
      
                                 - Make sure no existing Azure subscription is blocking activation
      

    Follow-Up Questions :
    • Which exact offer link are you using to sign up?

    • Are you using your school email or GitHub to verify?

    • Have you ever had an Azure free trial or student subscription before?

    • Can you share the full error message or a screenshot (no personal info)?

    • Which country/region are you in, and what domain does your school email use?

    Reference list

    1. Azure for Students Starter offer https://azure.microsoft.com/offers/ms-azr-0144p/
    2. Azure for Students offer https://azure.microsoft.com/offers/ms-azr-0170p/
    3. Sign-up with GitHub Student Developer Pack https://signup.azure.com/studentverification?offerType=1
    4. Convert or upgrade subscriptions (Free → Pay-As-You-Go) https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/cost-management-billing/manage/switch-azure-offer#convert-a-visual-studio-enterprise-subscription
    5. Monitoring free-service usage in Azure Education Hub https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/education-hub/azure-dev-tools-teaching/azure-students-program?

    Thanks,

    Suchitra.

    Student status alone does not automatically grant access to all Azure services. There are two separate education offers that must be correctly activated and signed into before using Azure (including Azure App Service):

    1. Azure Dev Tools for Teaching (through your institution)
    2. Azure for Students (individual student subscription with free credit)

    If the portal shows a message like “you do not have access” after entering details, the most common causes and fixes are:

    1. Confirm the correct education program
      • If the institution purchased Azure Dev Tools for Teaching, access is based on the school email domain. Students must sign in with the same domain that the school registered.
      • If using Azure for Students, a personal Azure free trial or pay‑as‑you‑go account is not enough; the Azure for Students subscription must be created and active.
    2. Check sign‑in account and domain
      • Go to the Azure Dev Tools for Teaching management portal or Azure portal only with the school email address that matches the institution’s domain.
      • If students don’t already have a Microsoft account for that email, they are prompted to create one. This step must be completed successfully before access works.
    3. Verify that the institution has an active Azure Dev Tools for Teaching subscription
      • Azure Dev Tools for Teaching is only available if the school has a Volume Licensing agreement with Microsoft.
      • If the school does not participate, students will see access errors even if they are students.
      • Ask the school’s IT/admin whether Azure Dev Tools for Teaching is active for the institution and that the correct domain is configured.
    4. Use the correct portal for student benefits
      • For Azure Dev Tools for Teaching software and benefits, students should access the Azure Education Hub inside the Azure portal using their education credentials.
      • For Azure for Students credits (needed to deploy Azure App Service), ensure the Azure for Students subscription is created and not expired.
    5. If sign‑in still fails
      • If the student account cannot access the Azure Education Hub or Dev Tools for Teaching even with the correct school email, use the dedicated support channel for students: the Microsoft support webpage at https://aka.ms/studentsupport (from the context).
      • For issues with Azure Dev Tools for Teaching setup or subscription on the institution side, admins should use Plans Support from the Azure Dev Tools for Teaching documentation.

    In summary, being a student is not enough by itself; the school must be enrolled in the correct program, the correct school email/domain must be used, and the student must have an active Azure for Students or Dev Tools for Teaching entitlement. If any of these are missing or misconfigured, the portal will show that access is not available.
