Eligible US college students can access both services at this discounted rate by verifying their status annually through SheerID, for up to 48 months.
Students must re-verify each year to maintain the discount, and existing Hulu subscribers may need to switch billing to Spotify to qualify.
The student bundle saves users $13.99 per month, and eligibility is limited to Title IV-accredited college or university students aged 18 or older.
