The Offer

Direct link to offer

• Alaska is offering University of Washington students a special deal. You can get status based on your Autumn quarter GPA:
  • 3.5-3.9 GPA and get 2018 MVP status

• You also get 5,000 miles for creating a new account or enrolling in the promotion if you’re already a member

The Fine Print

• Offer is valid for University of Washington students who register for the promotion by October 31, 2017, with a valid University of Washington email address.
• By registering for the promotion, you consent to Alaska Airlines and University of Washington sharing information (including your name, date of birth, UW email address, and confirmation of your GPA range) as necessary to provide confirmation to Alaska Airlines of your eligibility for MVP or MVP Gold status based on your autumn quarter 2017 GPA.
• Students earning a 3.5 – 3.9 GPA will be awarded MVP status by January 30, 2018, valid through December 31, 2018. Students earning a 4.0 GPA will be awarded MVP Gold status by January 30, 2018, valid through December 31, 2018.
• GPA qualification is not required for the 5,000 bonus miles. Allow 1-2 weeks after registering for the 5,000 bonus miles to be posted to your Mileage Plan account.
• An individual may receive the bonus a maximum of one time, even if they hold multiple separate Mileage Plan accounts. Offer is not combinable with other Mileage Plan enrollment or account activation promotions. Mileage Plan terms and conditions apply.

Our Verdict

At the very least you should register for the easy 5,000 miles if you go to University of Washington (and also tell all your friends to do the same). Fingers crossed readers of this site are already getting good GPAs so they get some free status thrown in, if not maybe this will be a good motivator to turn that around. I really like promotions like this that encourage students to get better grades and reward them for doing so.
