Apple Music’s student plan is getting more costly in the US, UK, and Canada
Apple Music has raised the subscription price of its student plan in the US, UK, and Canada, as first reported by 9to5Mac (via TechCrunch).
While it’s increasing the price from $4.99 to $5.99 / month in the US and Canada, student users in the UK can expect a similar jump from £4.99 to £5.99 / month.
Apple hasn’t acknowledged the changes yet, but the new pricing information is available on Apple Music’s webpage.
Students subscribed to Apple Music have also started seeing the price increase on their iPhones and iPads’ subscription pages.
It’s unclear when strictly Apple implemented these changes, but, as 9to5Mac points out, it was likely rolled out sometime between June 21st and the 23rd — an archived Apple Music webpage shows the old £4.99 student price on the 21st.
Apple Music’s student plan
Apple Music’s student plan, reserved for those enrolled in a college or university, was previously the most affordable full-featured plan on offer.
Pricing for the $9.99 / month individual and $14.99 / month family plans remain unchanged, and the same goes for the $4.99 / month voice plan.
While students might look to the voice plan as a way to save an extra buck, it offers more limited access to Apple Music, as you can only control it through Siri.
Apple Music’s price increase isn’t limited to just the US, UK, and Canada. Last month, Apple quietly upped the subscription price for students across several countries, including Australia, New Zealand, the Philippines, Singapore, Malaysia, Saudi Arabia, Indonesia, Israel, and Kenya.
