    Just checked the NUS site and I no longer see apple listed as one of the NUS discount stores. Also checked apples website and it seems they have done away with their regular 10% studant discount, instead they are doing different sized discounts depending on what you buy.

    EDIT

    just checked and it seems they still are doing NUS discounts *phew*

    However it's a real shame for non NUS studants as their discount size has decreased.

    They've stopped it on the iPods though, I think.

    7% discount for purchases using the normal website or Educational Discount.

    14% discount for purchases on hardware via Higher Education Discount via the campus network or in-store using your NUS and University student card (as long as your university is part of the the HE Discount scheme).

    I'd be very suprised if apple ever stopped doing student discounts seeing as they seem to appeal to students.

    Or use your uni proxy server if available to access the campus-only store with 14% discount from anywhere.
