With the recent Studio Ghibli craze fueled by GPT-4o’s image generation model, many people, especially students, are looking for ways to access ChatGPT Plus without paying the $20/month subscription fee. Fortunately, now is the perfect time, as OpenAI is offering a two-month free ChatGPT Plus subscription.
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman announced on X that college students in the US and Canada can claim ChatGPT Plus for free. This offer began on March 31 and is valid until May 31, 2025. It is available to anyone enrolled in an accredited degree-granting institution, including current Plus members.
The ChatGPT Plus subscription provides faster responses, priority access, more accurate answers, and unlocks the GPT-4.5 experimental model. Users can switch between the GPT-4o, 01, 03-mini, and 03-mini-high models and access the new image generation tool to create Ghibli-inspired art.
How to Claim Your Free ChatGPT Plus Subscription
To claim this offer, US and Canadian college students must verify their enrollment through SheerID by visiting the provided link. You may need to log in to ChatGPT using your institution’s single sign-on or upload documents to verify your enrollment status.
Once you successfully claim the subscription, you can enjoy two months of access to this advanced AI model. Be aware that after the offer ends, you will be charged the standard $20/month fee, so consider canceling before that time if you do not wish to continue.
This initiative by OpenAI is timely for the final months of the academic year, providing students with an advanced AI tool to help with studying, summarizing, dictating, and offering personalized assistance. If you’re a student, don’t miss this opportunity—claim it as soon as possible!
