The details
WSJ offers a Student Digital pack from about $4/month and a Student Print & Digital pack around $10/month. Unlike consumer promos these student rates do not step up to full price at renewal — they hold as long as you remain a verified student. A graduate offer of roughly $2/month for the first year also circulates. Many universities additionally sponsor free WSJ access institutionally.
