Hello,

My Figma Education plan expired and I’ve been unable to re-verify my student status since September 2025.
I’m currently an active college student enrolled in a graduate microprogram (Education) at a French-language CEGEP in Québec, Canada.
Please find attached my valid student ID as proof of enrollment.

Could you please review my case and restore access to my Education plan?

Hi ​@Kathy.cote , Celine from Figma here, happy to assist!

Figma partners with SheerID to verify all student and educator applications. Since you’re in higher education, please apply directly at figma.com/education/apply with your school-issued email address. Be sure to select Higher ed as your institution type and complete the SheerID verification process.

As a reminder, access is granted for one year, and if you’re still a student afterward, you can reapply to renew it. You can find more details in our guide: Figma for Education.

SheerID will reach out within a few days to confirm your eligibility. If your application is denied, you can submit an appeal directly with SheerID by providing additional documentation. They’ll review it and let you know if your status can be approved.
Please note that Figma isn’t able to review documents or confirm individual eligibility.

Hope this helps clear things up!

Hello,

My Figma Education plan expired and I’ve been unable to re-verify my student status since September 2025.
I’m currently an active college student enrolled in a graduate microprogram (Education) at a French-language CEGEP in Québec, Canada. When I need a break from all this school stuff, I sometimes check the latest scores and bets on 1win it’s quick and easy to use.
Please find attached my valid student ID as proof of enrollment.

Could you please review my case and restore access to my Education plan?

I’m having something similar. My Figma Education plan also expired recently, and I can’t seem to re-verify my student status either. I’m currently enrolled in a graduate program too, and I’ve submitted my student ID, but still no luck getting access restored.

Has anyone actually managed to get the Education plan back after re verifying? Just wondering if there’s a trick I’m missing.

Hey ​@pawelmichalski , in order to verify your status, could you please follow the steps I mentioned above (in my last reply in this topic)? 

Once your education status is verified, you can create or upgrade the team you plan to use as your education team. More details here.

Please you make sure you’ve followed the steps detailed in this article: Figma for Education. Thank you!
