Just replying to this post to provide an information to you and not to avail any Offer/Reward from your end as per enlisted in your post.

In short and simple language if i have to answer this in one sentence then the short answer is "You won't receive $100 AWS Credit anymore from AWS Educate as they have revised their Terms & Conditions / Policy."

If you need a detailed explanation then you can read below;

So the entire story goes like this, AWS has changed their policy with respect to AWS Educate from December 2019.
All new AWS Educate student members enrolling at member institutions will now receive $100 in AWS usage credit pre-loaded into an AWS Educate Starter account at signup, however you cannot transfer this credit to any other AWS account, you will have to use it.
On the other hand, New student members enrolling at non-member institutions will continue to receive $30 in AWS Promotional Credit pre-loaded into their AWS Educate Starter accounts at signup.

Now you might wonder, why AWS Team did so?
They say that, "We want to make the sign-up process easier for AWS Educate student members with only one account type to choose from instead of two, students no longer need to enter an AWS Account ID or select an account type after registering. They may now go directly into their student portal and enjoy the benefits of AWS Educate. AWS Educate Starter Accounts also come with a capped amount of usage and do not require a credit card to sign up, eliminating the risk of members overspending if a service is not shut off"

A final query clicking in your mind would be, how-come the AWS Credit suppliers are still selling $100 AWS Credit if the credits are no more available?
The answer to this is, this change of policy only affects the new AWS Educate Student Members, all old student members would continue to receive the AWS Credit during their course time-frame that they have enrolled for.
In-fact this is one of the reason that you might have noticed a sudden hike in the price of AWS Credits (Edu) as the stock became less and in future it might also become NIL if AWS Team decides to withdraw this Credit Scheme completely.

So my verdict to this, considering the whole scenario and looking at the positive side of it, this decision from AWS looks fair enough according to me, this would reduce the selling of AWS Credits (Edu) to a greater extent and would also make the life of legit AWS Educate Student Members easier as they don't need to input their AWS Account Number or have a valid Credit Card to explore AWS Services.

Hope so i was able to answer your query in a detailed manner. Cheers!!
