Students can double their membership time on the ICC!
If you’re relatively new to chess, you may also want to check
out ICC’s sister service, World Chess Live, which is geared more
to early-stage and casual players than ICC and has extra-special
pricing for students and families.
http://www.worldchesslive.com
As a student you can pay for any regular ICC membership or renewal
of six months or longer and your time will be doubled, up to your
22nd birthday or your last day as a full-time student, whichever
comes later. You qualify for this as a student if either:
1) you are a full-time student, OR
2) you are 21 years old or younger.
Taking a night course does not qualify. In order to qualify for the
discount, please send your ICC username and proof of student status
by faxing it to 1-412-521-5575, attaching it as a scanned image to email
ICC@chessclub.com (these emails might be discarded as spam so please send a
second email without an attachment as well), or sending it by postal mail to:
Internet Chess Club
5820 Forbes Avenue, Suite 1
Pittsburgh, PA 15217 USA
Examples of "proof" are photocopies or fax of:
- driver's license
- school identification card
- school registration papers
- report card
- birth certificate
- passport
Be sure to include your ICC username; otherwise your account won't be credited.
When purchasing membership time initially only the regular
period of time is credited. The additional
free months that constitute the student discount are applied to the end only
after proof is received. In order to receive the student discount, we must
receive your proof before the original time expires.
