The program offers college students and educational staff a free item when they purchase an eligible Mac or iPad through Apple’s education store. The specific free item and the eligible products vary by country. In China and Singapore, the promotion provides a pack of four AirTags with the purchase of selected new MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, iPad Air, or iPad Pro models. In India, the available free options include a pack of four AirTags or AirPods 4 with an eligible Mac purchase, and an Apple Pencil Pro with an eligible iPad purchase.
