**Ask About the Good Student Discount — Before You Add Them**

If your teenager is heading into a new school year with solid grades, don’t wait until renewal time to mention it.

Many auto insurance carriers offer a good student discount for drivers typically under age 25 who maintain a qualifying GPA — often a B average or higher. Before you call to add your teen to your policy, pull together their most recent report card or transcript.

**Why does timing matter?**

When you add a new driver is when your agent reviews your full policy. Having that documentation ready at that moment means your agent can apply any eligible discounts right away, rather than going back to make adjustments later.

**A few other things to have on hand:**

– Your teen’s driver’s license number
– Their school enrollment verification
– Any driver’s education completion certificate

Completing a state-approved driver’s education course may also qualify your household for additional discounts, depending on your carrier.

These steps won’t guarantee a specific outcome, but they put you in the strongest possible position when the conversation starts.
