Cursor Student Plan – Free Pro AI Code Editor for Students

The Cursor Student Plan gives eligible university students free access to Cursor Pro for a limited period, helping them write, understand, and improve code more efficiently using AI assistance. With this student offer, learners can use AI-powered features directly inside the code editor to explain code, refactor logic, debug issues, and explore unfamiliar libraries or frameworks. Cursor is commonly used by computer science students, engineering students, and technical founders to speed up development while still maintaining control and understanding of their code. Students typically use Cursor for coursework, programming assignments, research projects, hackathons, and early startup experiments. The editor is designed to support real-world workflows, allowing students to move faster without replacing core problem-solving or learning fundamentals. To access the student plan, users must verify their academic status using a valid university email. The Pro plan is provided free for one year for eligible students. After the free period ends, continued access depends on Cursor’s standard pricing and subscription policies. This program helps students learn modern, AI-assisted development workflows while keeping the human decision-making process central.
