I qualified for the rebate as a current enrolled grad student.
At first the, GM at my dealership questioned the eligibility of the FR-S for the education rebate and initially said no. But i told him to check the FR-S print brochure as it explicitly states the education rebate. He looked at, copied it, and then approved me for the rebate.
So if your salesman denies eligibility, tell him/her to check the FR-S print brochure for proof.
