Ordering off Apple education site.

My GF who I share my machines with is a student. Normally when I buy a machine at the Apple store all she has to do is show her ID and we get the discount as I am the one paying. I ordered the nMP on the educational site and it let me order it using my CC and it didn't ask for the student information. I did say some where in fine print they may audit purchases. Anyone have any experience on this?

Thanks
