Netflix has a huge library of TV shows and movies, including many brand new original series and old favorites. But if you’re a college student trying to get by on a tight budget, there’s unfortunately no Netflix student discount to ease the burden.

Still, students looking to stretch their entertainment budget have a few options. Netflix no longer offers a free trial, but there are several great alternatives with student discounts, and a number of free TV and movie streaming sites that can save you even more money.

Since Netflix no longer offers free trials, the best way to get access to Netflix cheaply is to ask a parent or friend to set up a profile on their account. You might even consider paying the difference to upgrade to a plan that lets you stream without interrupting their viewing.

Also consider partnering with fellow students who want to share a new account so you can split the costs.
