Access to academic benefits issue

[tloredo]

Hi everyone,

Hello, GitHub Edu community team-

I applied for academic access (as a teacher/researcher) a couple weeks ago, but so far have not gotten an email about my status. However, when I visit the application page, the status section on the right says:

Approved - Submitted Feb 28, 2025

Congrats! Your request for @tloredo was approved and your benefits are now available.

But I don't see access to the benefits. In particular, in my profile, when I click on the Copilot section, I get an offer to "Start Using Copilot Free - or try Copilot Pro".

Further down the application page, I read:

You were last verified as a faculty on Feb 28, 2025. It is not necessary for you to reverify at this time. There may be a wait period between verification and access to academic benefits.

That's on the same page that says "your benefits are now available." So I'm unclear on whether my benefits are available, or if I'm still in some queue.

Would someone please check my status and clarify it for me?

Thanks,
Tom Loredo
