Hi everyone,

I want to subscribe Professional Account on Figma (individual subscription), but I was invited to join an Educational Team. I’m wondering if it’s possible to be part of an Educational Team while maintaining my Professional subscription.

Hey ​@Muzi Yang , it's not possible for Professional users to edit files in a team on Education plan.

If a file is in an Education plan team, in order to be able to edit the file, the person who's sharing the file (the owner) can move the file to a team on the Starter or the Professional plan, and then share the file again with you so you can edit.

(Just a reminder: If you join a team on the Education plan before verifying your education status, you will have seven days to verify your education status. After those seven days, you must verify your education status to keep accessing files and projects in that team.)

Hope this clarifies!
