Internet Connectivity for Students

Various internet service providers (ISPs) and cellular providers offer discounted plans for students. CITS does not endorse a specific service provider. Please make sure to check coverage in your area. Other providers may offer similar discounts.

  • FCC agreement stating that providers will waive late fees, not cutoff service for lack of payment, and open hot-spots.

  • Comcast COVID-19 response: offers free WiFi for 2 months to low-income families plus all Xfinity hot-spots are free to the public during this time.

  • Charter Free Internet offer for 2 months

  • AT&T COVID-19 response: offers open hot-spots, unlimited data to existing customers, and $10/month plans to low-income families

  • Verizon COVID-19 response: no special offers, but following the FCC agreement.

  • Sprint COVID-19 response: follows FCC agreement, provides unlimited data to existing customers, and, starting Tuesday, 3/17/2020, will allow all handsets to enable hot-spots for 60 days at no extra charge.

  • T-Mobile COVID-19 response: follows FCC agreement, plus unlimited data to existing customers, and, coming soon, will allow all handsets to enable hot-spots for 60 days at no extra charge (I expect others will follow).
