Is it normal for Webflow to navigate me to my account dashboard without providing notifications or next steps after inputting my student email for the student discount?

TL;DR
  • After submitting your student email, Webflow redirects you to your dashboard without confirmation, requiring email verification via GitHub Education.  
  • Check your inbox (and spam) for verification instructions, or apply directly through GitHub's Student Developer Pack to activate the discount.

Yes, it's normal behavior for Webflow to redirect you to your account dashboard after submitting your student email for the student discount without giving detailed on-screen instructions or confirmation.

​

1. What Happens After Submitting Your Student Email

​

  • After entering your student email, Webflow typically redirects you to your account dashboard.
  • No immediate on-site confirmation message may appear, which can be confusing.
  • You're not automatically given the discount—email verification and additional steps are required.

​

2. Next Steps You Should Expect

​

  • You should receive an email from Webflow or GitHub Education (Webflow partners with GitHub Student Developer Pack).
  • The email will:
  • Request verification of your academic status.
  • Possibly require you to sign up via the GitHub Education Pack, which Webflow uses to validate eligibility.
  • After successful verification, the student discount (usually 1 year of free CMS site access) will be applied.

​

3. What to Do if No Email Arrives

​

  • Check your spam or promotions folder for an email from GitHub or Webflow.
  • If you don’t receive an email within 24 hours:
  • Visit https://education.github.com/pack and apply with your student email, selecting Webflow as one of the benefits.
  • You can also contact Webflow Support at https://support.webflow.com.

​

Summary

​

Webflow does not display an immediate confirmation message after entering your student email—it redirects to the dashboard. Verify your eligibility through GitHub Education and check your email for further steps to activate the student discount.
