The details
The FT offers students roughly 50% off its digital subscription. Standard FT digital runs about £4/week; the student rate brings this to roughly £2/week. The clearest currently-confirmed route is a student-verification platform verification, though FT has historically also run direct discounted student/graduate digital offers at ft.com.
