After you enroll, your students discount is valid for 4 years total. Those years don't have to be back-to-back. However, you won't get the discount during any semester(s) you take off.

For example, if you go to school for a year then take a semester off, you'll still have 3 years left to get the discount if you return.

When you return, you will need to re-verify that you are actively enrolled in an eligible secondary educational institution.
