GitHub Universe conference was yesterday and today. They talked about providing co-pilot for free to students during one of the talks. So I'm going to guess it's just a mistake.
Maybe they messed something up while they were making a new feature go live.l?
Probably. I just reactivated it. It took almost a week to refresh. No idea why.
contact support and I'm sure they will be able to assist in reactivating your student benefits
Depending on your ide of choice, I'd also recommend Codeium (with an "e" - Codium is something else) as an alternative. If you sign up during their currently ongoing EA phase, you can get a free lifetime account.
I've used both and I haven't noticed any major difference in the quality of results. If there is a difference at all, I've personally had better generations from Codeium, but the overall difference is slight.
(For comparison's sake, this was with Python and Ruby so far.)
