Hi everyone,

When I apply for GitHub Education,it says"School email must be verified on your Github Account"
But my school email address has already verified

Hi @jza10086,

Many users are experiencing the same problem despite having the academic email verified and set as primary. I recommend you contact support by opening a ticket here, select "Other" and explain your problem.
