I want to upgrade my 2020.5 perpetual license purchased with student discount, but I’m not longer a student

Just like the title says, I purchased a perpetual license quite a few years ago with a student discount when I was in college for audio engineering. It’s version 2020.5, which only works on OS Catalina or earlier, and my poor lil 2012 MacBook is nearing the end of its life. From looking into it, it seems that I’m only able to upgrade if I’m still a student. Can someone confirm if this is the case, or if there’s any workarounds besides paying full price for a brand new license? Is there any way I’m able to purchase a perpetual upgrade at full price and have it work?

Been hunting this guy since August of last year. This was phase 11, 6230 encounters this in this phase. This is the 3rd shiny heracross I’ve seen, (first 2 fled), it took over 50k encounters total (didn’t start keeping track until phase 4, and the total I have for phase 4 to 10 is 47709. Phase 1-3 were between august 25th and sep 3rd, so I’m conservatively rounding to 50k+)

Used an adamant ralts with synchronize to give it a 50% chance of being adamant, and I won the coin flip! Used a pink pokeblock to make its flee rate 0%, and got it in 6 balls. And it has an almost perfect attack IV (but abismal IVs in everything else lol)

There was a 15% chance for it to flee on turn one that’s unavoidable. Once turn 2 hit and it didn’t flee, it’s about a 95% success rate. 1/20 chance I wouldn’t catch it within 30 Safari balls. This shiny is a 1/163,840 chance, so I’m pretty lucky to see 3 shiny heracross under odds.

Also it happened on my gf’s bday!
