As a student heading back to school this year, you're likely on a tight budget. But that doesn't mean you have to miss out on the latest movies, TV shows, and original content out there. Fortunately, several streaming services offer discounted plans and sales specifically tailored for students.

These deals, spread across platforms, let you enjoy a wealth of entertainment without breaking the bank. From Prime Video to Peacock, there are several options available that cater to different preferences and budgets. You could catch up on series like The Boys on Prime Video, then switch over to Hulu to get a dose of The Kardashians each week — all without spending an arm and a leg.

With each student discount, all you have to do is prove you're enrolled in school or college, and you'll be golden. Many will require a student email address, while others ask for other forms of identification. But all of them can save you precious cash. Below, you can explore some of the best streaming deals for students that can help you make an informed decision on which subscription will give you the most bang for your buck. Then just sign up, kick back, relax and enjoy your favorite shows.

Best Streaming Deals for Students

Subscribe to Amazon Prime for Students for just $7.50 per month, which is roughly half the monthly cost of a regular Prime Membership ($15). You can also opt to pay just $69 yearly instead. This offer applies to students 18 to 24 years old who are enrolled in colleges or universities in the United States, District of Columbia, or Puerto Rico. Keep in mind that you must also have an email address that ends in ".edu" to qualify.

Qualifying college students in the U.S. can sign up for Max for just $5 monthly, which is 50% off the normal $10 Max With Ads plan. You'll need to verify your status as a student using a UNiDAYS account to receive a discount code that can be redeemed at Max, all of which is free. You'll then get a discount for 12 months.

Apple offers an Apple Music student subscription for just $6 monthly, which is $5 off its normal price of $11 per month. It comes with access to Apple TV+, so you'll be able to enjoy your favorite songs as well as shows with a discount that lasts up to 48 months. You must be a student at a college or university, and you'll need your student ID and a student email to have your status verified.

Get Peacock Premium for just $2 monthly for up to 12 months when signing up with a student discount. That's $6 off its normal subscription price of $8 monthly. You're eligible to sign up as a current member, though you'll have to verify that you're a student with the use of SheerID. After being given a voucher, you'll need to input your information into your account before the voucher is applied.

Any students eligible for this Hulu deal can get the ad-supported streaming plan for just $2 monthly, which discounts the $8 price by a whopping $6. You must be enrolled at a Title IV accredited US college or university to make the cut, however. This deal is valid as long as you can prove that you're in college, which makes it the most convenient out of the pack since you can have it as long as you're still in school, when you need it the most.
