Quick answer
Go to perplexity.ai, enter your MUST University institutional email and complete the academic verification through the university portal. Once your enrollment is confirmed, Perplexity Pro is unlocked with a 50% discount (US$ 9/month instead of US$ 17/month, price checked on 08/07/2026).
Before you start
- An active MUST University institutional email.
- Access to the authenticator app (MFA) used to log in to the Student Portal.
- Your date of birth on hand, to complete the academic verification form.
How it works
Perplexity runs an education program that unlocks Perplexity Pro at a discount for verified students. Verification is done with your MUST University institutional email and, at the end of the process, requires logging in to the university portal to confirm your academic enrollment. With the discount, the subscription costs US$ 9/month, versus US$ 17/month at full price (prices checked on 08/07/2026). How long the 50% discount lasts depends entirely on Perplexity and can be changed or ended at any time, without notice.
