Verification Help & Guidance

Hi everyone,

Hello Im Adit K

My GitHub Student Developer Pack application was rejected, and I’m unable to get support through the education contact form because manual reviews appear to be disabled.

I am currently enrolled at Manipal University Jaipur and submitted valid student verification documents. I would appreciate guidance on what may be wrong with my application and whether I can reapply successfully.

Details:

• University: Manipal University Jaipur
• Applied using: aditvk27@gmail.com (Primary), adit.2428020077@muj.manipal.edu (College id)
• Documents submitted: ID card
• GitHub username: Aditvk

I have ensured that my profile name matches my student documents.

Could a moderator please guide me regarding the rejection reason or next steps?

Thank you.

It seems perfectly valid, so it's likely just a system quirk.

Here are a few quick tips that usually bypass these automated rejections:

• Take a live photo: The system often rejects uploaded files. Try using your webcam to take a live picture of the ID in a well-lit room.
• Enable location services: Make sure your browser's location permissions are turned on while applying, as GitHub uses this to verify you are near your campus.
• Add extra proof: If the ID alone keeps failing, try holding a recent, dated tuition receipt right next to your ID in the webcam photo.

Hope this helps you get approved soon!
