How does the EDU version of Vegas Edit 20 work?

Hello, I'm a student and I was wondering if it would be ok for me to purchase the edu version of Vegas Edit 20 even though I've taken 1 year off of school (planning to go back on the next spring semester). I'm still technically a student, but I'm just on a break and I don't want to buy something only for Magix to tell me that I'm not applicable to take advantage of that offer. I'm wondering all of this because I had originally bought Vegas edit 20 during their new years sale for $166 dollars, but because I accidentally selected the "mail me" option instead of the "download" option I got confused as to why I never received a code and after contacting Magix support they cancelled my order and refunded me (one day after the new years sale ended). Since I'd now have to buy Vegas Edit 20 for 250 dollars I'm beginning to get uninterested in buying the product due to the price hike. I tried to contact Magix support to see if I could get a payment portal that would allow me to buy Vegas Edit 20 for the $166 price point, but they have yet to respond and I doubt that they're going to allow me to do that. I just want to know if 1. Can I still buy the edu version and get all of the same features as if I was buying the non edu version? and 2. Will I get to keep this version of Vegas even after I'm finished being a student?

Keep your eyes open for special offers on Pro Edit 20; they are often better than Ed pricing, and they always come back in the next sale.

There wasn't any "price hike;" we are currently in a different price window and it doesn't stay that way forever.

As this is a user forum and not an official VEGAS or MAGIX Support, it may be best to inspect the EDU version FAQs here https://www.magix.com/us/education/faq/

If those fags won't help, the Purchase consultation contact email address is infoservice@magix.net

Please note that the special offers in the Online Shop at www.vegascreativesoftware.com may/will change at least twice every month, so the next ones might again be less expensive there (as suggested above).

The current offer beats the educational discount.
