Student Verification Issues

Question

Hi! I’m Avery a student, and I was wondering why my verification is requiring me to login with my school email? I would like to keep this account since it has all of my projects. I am also authenticated via google oauth on this account.

Why do I need to change my email to verify?

Thanks,

Avery

To verify school accounts, it is mandatory to use an institutional email domain so that Figma can verify that you are, in fact, a student.

You might use the school account and then add your personal/primary email as a collaborator in the project files.

I understand that, but I didn’t have to do this originally.
