I've tried applying for the GitHub Student Developer Pack several times, but my applications keep getting rejected. I enabled two-factor authentication and have a college-provided email address, along with an acceptance letter and other supporting documents. My college orientation is on August 16, so I'm wondering what kind of proof GitHub accepts and how I can improve my application.

An acceptance letter may not be enough because GitHub generally looks for proof that you’re currently enrolled. A tuition receipt, class schedule, current student ID, or another document showing active enrollment may work better. If you’re still being rejected after providing that, contact GitHub Support so they can explain what’s missing instead of repeatedly submitting the same application.
I do have a college-provided email address and an acceptance letter, but I don’t have a current student ID or class schedule yet since orientation isn’t until August 16.
