Notices:
1.You will have to cover your webcam to avoid getting your face captured. (Webcam permission is compulsory)
2.You will have to give Location access to GitHub. (Location access compulsory)
3.You will need an existing GitHub account that is having full profile completed.
4.You will need one next mail and one genuine Gmail account.
5.You will always be rejected on the first attempt.
*Recommendation*: Use a secondary browser like firefox which you have never used before
Step1: Go to student id maker and download the ID which you have customized with a kid’s photo. You can keep
any class like 8th,9th,10th,11th, or 12th. Age must be more than 13 years. Keep the school logo that is near you.
Step2: Photoshop it, change the signature, add the kid’s photo, add a bedsheet background behind the ID card and increase the contrast.
Step3: Now export as png and upload to GitHub education form as student ID. Make sure that you select your current school as the one from which you “*borrowed*” the logo.
Step4: Submit the request wait for 1 day and you will get a rejection notice.
Step5: Repeat the process again but add your Gmail also and submit the form with that email. This will make GitHub think you are genuine as you have given an education email and personal email.
Now wait for accept form for 1 or 2 days ( For me it was 6 hours) If it is rejected again then it means you should use VPN as you got IP ban.
