Before you upgrade: try xTiles on the free plan
You do not need a discount to start. Set up your semester or your classes on the free plan first, and upgrade once you know which features you need.
Students can start with the best apps for students and how they fit together. Teachers can start with how to set up a teacher planner in xTiles.
