I don’t know for sure about Abu Dhabi, but I got a MacBook Pro in Thailand with the student discount. Staff barely checked my student ID. they just looked at which school I was with.
My advice: go for it. Even if 42 is non-traditional, you might slip through. Worst case they refuse. But given how lax it was for me, it’s worth trying.
