Codex has announced a new initiative providing verified university students in the United States and Canada with $100 in credits for use within Codex. The program aims to support students who are using Codex to develop software projects such as course registration tools, community platforms, and interactive study systems. Eligible students can claim the offer by verifying their enrollment status through SheerID, after which the credits will be automatically added to their ChatGPT accounts.

The offer is limited to one per student and applies only to those currently enrolled at degree-granting universities and residing in the United States or Canada. Credits are valid for 12 months from the date of issuance and will be applied to the student’s personal workspace within ChatGPT. Codex clarified that these are not API credits but ChatGPT credits that extend Codex usage beyond standard plan limits.

The initiative underscores Codex’s focus on empowering the next generation of software builders by lowering barriers to experimentation and innovation among university students.
