Notion gives college students, college teachers, and verified student clubs a free Education Plus plan — the paid plan most adults pay $10/month for. You sign in with your school email and the upgrade is automatic. No credit card. [Source: notion.com/product/notion-for-education (accessed 2026-05-17)]
Who qualifies
- College and university students at an accredited school with a working
.edu (or equivalent) email address.
- College and university teachers and staff with an institutional email.
- Verified student organizations at higher-education institutions (clubs, fellowships, campus groups). One application per org. [Source: notion.com/help/notion-for-education (accessed 2026-05-17)]
You do NOT qualify if:
- You are a K-12 student or K-12 teacher. Notion blocks K-12 from the free Plus plan. You can still use Notion's regular Free plan (unlimited pages, 5 MB file uploads) with any email.
- Your school email is a personal address like
gmail.com, yahoo.com, or icloud.com. Notion will reject it.
- You do not have a valid school-issued email. Notion does not accept student ID cards or transcripts as proof. [Source: notion.com/help/notion-for-education (accessed 2026-05-17)]
What you get
- Unlimited blocks for your whole workspace (the regular Free plan caps team blocks).
- Unlimited file uploads (Free plan limits each file to 5 MB).
- 30-day page history to undo mistakes.
- Up to 100 guests you can invite to view or edit your pages.
- Custom website publishing from any page.
- Plan stays active as long as your school email keeps working. [Source: notion.com/product/notion-for-education (accessed 2026-05-17)]
