While Anthropic is just now entering higher education, OpenAI has been active in this space for nearly a year. The startup launched ChatGPT Edu in May 2024 — a university-focused version of its chatbot that came with multiple college partnerships. Last month, the company formed the NextGenAI Consortium, committing $50 million to accelerate AI research across 15 colleges. In February, OpenAI also partnered with California State University to bring ChatGPT Edu to all CSU campuses. Then, this Thursday, OpenAI announced that ChatGPT Plus (which costs $20 a month) will be free for all U.S. and Canadian college students through May.
