What you can do
Evidence
The US Prime page asks 'Are you a student?' in a February 1, 2024 capture and 'Are you a student or 18-24 years old?' in a capture later that day. By February 27, 2024 the $7.49/month Prime Student card offers 'Verify with Age: For 18-24 year olds' next to student verification, and by July 26, 2024 (US Eastern) the plan is listed as Prime for Young Adults. Amazon's June 2025 post says 18-to-24-year-olds can join for $7.49 a month or $69 a year by confirming their age with an ID.
