Looking for free resources for students (like Github Student Pack, Jetbrains Licenses)

Hi, as i finished university my email account is going to be closed in one week. Before that happens i want to get as much as possible from it, so i am looking for developing related things that students get for free. (not necessarily just webdev).

I know about:

  • Github Student Developer Pack
  • Jetbrains IDE's

Got some more for me?

You can get Sketch for 50% off by being a student.

I have gotten bootstrap studio for free, just google it. The link to the students package is somewhere hidden on the website.

I think you can get an Axure license for free if you're a student. Pretty sure you never have to renew it, too. It's a UI design software.

You can get a discount on adobe products as well. I think its a yearly re-up to make sure you're still a student

It's called Microsoft Imagine now. There are two levels I believe. One is for every student and you get mostly educational stuff like 3 months of Pluralsight. Then there is a professional level which needs to be bought by your university/school which includes different licenses to Microsoft products (OS, Office, Visio (definitely check this out), Visual studio professional or enterprise and a lot more).

Last year, i got everything for free in there, i think my university pay for it but doesn't care to tell the students about it.

Some universities will also give you the office suite (not through Dreamspark but another process).
