Ask HN: Any way to get some OpenAI/Anthropic credits for school students?

2 amanchanda 1 6/13/2025, 7:20:05 PM

Hey Folks,

My son is in the 10th grade and has started learning programming with me recently. He is doing a short internship with me during his summer break.

As part of this internship, he has to work on a GEN AI project. I was curious if OpenAI or Anthorpic provides some basic credits to students experimenting like this?

Nothing major, but like $15-20 credits. I can very well buy the credits for him, but he will get an extra kick if he gets them through them instead of me buying them for him.

Any pointers are welcome.

TIA.

Just buy them, he won't get any credits for his internship.

AFAIK, OpenAI has no free credits like that and Anthropic specifically says internships are not eligible.
