Offer a student discount

560 points posted to Dell, Education, Sales Strategies by doomlord52 07/09/07 **ALREADY OFFERED**

A lot of companys offer this. A student discount. Apple sells their Macs for 20% less if your a student. Software companies often offer this on usefull products, such as Cinema 4d, Photoshop, and so on. If dell could offer this, it would help students get dell computers FROM dell. Although you can get a dell pc for $1000 or so, their not really that powerful. This kind of discont would be good on percision, Dimensions and notebooks.

I'm not sure if it's only in the US but yes it does exist. Just think logically for your university & or when you click to select your product (notebook, desktop etc.) click 'government, education & health care'. Just a btw,
Michigan State University - www.dell.com/msu
Georgia Tech - www.dell.com/gatech

Come on ppl we need NEW ideas here!!

Great! Oh no wait I don't live in the USA.....Any plans for a similar program in Europe??? I think many colleges here already offer their own deals on dells but to have one dedicated dell university European site would be brilliant.

I agree. I dont live in the US, but i know many people who would love a student discount. Any chance of this happening in Canada? Europe? World wide?
