Benefit Activation/Waiting

Hi everyone,

Hello,
I recently received the approved status for the GitHub Student Developer Pack on March 21, 2026. However, it has been 5 days since the approval, and my status is still showing "Awaiting Benefits".

Here are my account details:
Approval Date: March 21, 2026
Dashboard Status: Awaiting Benefits
Unavailable Benefits: GitHub Pro, Copilot, Partner Offers

Is this still within the normal waiting time? I have been waiting for 5 days, and I just want to make sure if there is any technical issue or system disruption causing this delay.

I have already tried the following steps:

• Checked my email for any notifications.
• Performed session refresh and logged back in.
• Rechecked the GitHub Education Pack page.

Has anyone experienced something similar, or is there any further information about this issue?

Thank you for your help!
