    For military/veteran?

    for student?

    can you use both at the same time?

    thanks

    I doubt that two or more discounts can be applied simultaneously.

    Dell's student discount plan is 6-12% depending on how you configure the warranty options on the notebook. There are other things thrown in as well, usually, like a gift-card and some service options.

    Does Dell have a military/veterans program?
    Haven't heard of one.

    EDIT: Cool! Just did a search and found that the Disabled American Veterans has an up to 12% discount on Dimension, Inspiron, and XPS computers.

    You can't use both discounts at the same time.

    I don't know about a military program...you might be able to call Dell and ask though. My hunch is that the discounts would still be about the same.

    The corporate/student discount is usually 5%.

    However, if you sign up for a 3 year warranty, you can get up to 12% discount.

    You can't combine discounts though.
