Solution 1Recommended

Verify Educational Eligibility via Identit-e

Check if your .org domain is approved and provide necessary documentation if it is not automatically recognized.

An .org email address is not automatically accepted for educational validation. Eligibility depends on whether the domain represents an educational institution and is included in the current approved domain list maintained by Identit-e.

1
Visit the Verification Portal

Go to the Identit-e Adobe validation portal at www.identit-e.com/adobe.

2
Enter Email Address

Input your .org school district email address to check if the domain is pre-approved.

3
Provide Manual Proof

If the domain is not recognized, follow the prompts to upload manual proof of employment, such as a faculty ID or an official letter from the school.

4
Wait for Confirmation

Allow a few business days for Identit-e to review your submitted documents and issue your validation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why wasn't my .org email automatically approved for the teacher discount?

Unlike standard .edu domains, .org domains are used by a variety of non-profit organizations. It must be manually added to the approved educational domain list by the verification service before automatic approval works.

What counts as valid proof of employment for school staff?

Valid proof typically includes a current school ID card with your name and photo, a recent faculty paycheck stub, or an official letterhead document from the school district confirming your employment.
