Parallels Student Discount

Parallels makes Parallels Desktop, the app that lets you run Windows and other operating systems side by side on a Mac. Students often need Windows-only software for class, and Parallels Desktop lets you run it on a MacBook without restarting.

Does Parallels offer a student discount?

Yes. Parallels runs its own education programme that gives students 50% off Parallels Desktop Pro Edition. The discount is applied automatically at checkout once your academic status is verified, so no coupon code is needed.

Who qualifies

• Current and newly accepted students at an accredited college or university
• Students with an academic or institutional email address from their school

According to Parallels, the discount renews each year as long as you remain eligible, so you do not have to reapply every semester. Only one copy of Parallels Desktop can be bought after each verification.

How to get the Parallels student discount

• Open the Parallels education page and click Buy Now on the edition you want.
• Verify your academic or institutional email address in the new tab. Some schools also let you sign in with your school account.
• Check your school inbox for the confirmation email with the discount already applied to your cart.
• Complete the purchase. Your subscription is sent to your email address.

How to use a Parallels code

Pick a code from the list, click to copy it, then paste it into the promo code box at the Parallels checkout. The education discount is applied through verification, so a regular promo code may not stack with it. Compare both prices at checkout and keep the lower one.
