The Egyptian electric train operating company has announced that it will continue to receive applications for student subscriptions, offering discounts for students. This move aims to make transportation more affordable for students. The company had previously announced that student subscription forms are available at Adli Mansour, Badr, and City of Arts stations, as well as on their website.
In a related development, the Egyptian Company for Metro and Monorail Management and Operation has made it possible for students to download the discounted subscription form for metro lines and the monorail online. This allows students to fill out the form before visiting subscription offices, reducing waiting times. The company has provided a link to download the student subscription form for the first time.
To apply for a student subscription, students need to follow several steps. First, they must download and print the subscription form. They also need to provide two recent photographs. The form must be approved by the educational institution they belong to, with a stamp and a specific code. For university students, the form must be approved by the university or educational institution, while school students need approval from their school and educational administration.
In addition to the approved form, students need to provide several documents. To prove their place of residence, they must provide a copy of their national ID card, which must be valid and indicate their occupation as "student". Students under 16 years old need to provide a digital birth certificate and a copy of their guardian's national ID card. If the student's residence address differs from the one on their ID card, they must provide a registered contract or a non-registered rental contract with a recent utility bill.
To prove their academic status, students can provide one of several documents. These include a copy of their college ID card, a nomination card, a copy of their tuition fees receipt for the current year, or a receipt issued by a bank, not electronically. The receipt must include the university's name, the student's name, the college's name, and the student's academic year.
The student subscription can only be extracted from the student's place of residence to their place of study, based on the data provided in the form and supporting documents. The Egyptian electric train operating company has made it easier for students to apply for discounted subscriptions by providing an online link to download the subscription form.
The move to offer discounted student subscriptions is part of the Egyptian government's efforts to support students and make transportation more affordable. The electric train and metro lines are an essential part of Egypt's public transportation system, and discounted subscriptions will help students to commute to and from their educational institutions more easily.
