Week four panic? Here's how to turn your Gemini free trial into an academic comeback
Google has relaunched its student offers in August 2026, providing eligible US college students with 12 free months of Google AI Pro and students in over 140 other markets with a free year of Google AI Plus. The article suggests using Gemini features to create study schedules, generate audio or video summaries of unread material, and build active recall quizzes from lecture slides. Students must sign up by December 31 and cancel before the free period ends to avoid a $20 monthly renewal fee.
