On the next level, you can choose one of the currently three plan options: “Individual”, “Family” or “University Student”. Select it and click “Verify Eligibility”.

You can basically enter your private email address. Some universities, however, want you to use the university Wi-Fi network, as well as the university email address.
If you cannot find your university, yours isn’t participating in the UNiDAYS program. Unfortunately, you can’t use the Apple Music discount for students. But you can try to get your university or school registered with UNiDAYS. This may take a while however.
