Student bundle
A free bundle for verified students with domain, hosting and cloud offers.
The catch: The free domains last one year and then renew at normal price, and you must stay a verified student.
Student free domain
Namecheap's own student portal for a free domain and simple site setup.
The catch: After the free term the domain renews at Namecheap's normal price.
Check a name, set up DNS and test the site once it is live. All free, in the browser.
