FREE Coursera(must have verified student email)

[celerius]

As it happens, Machine Learning is one of the courses that is not included in the free certificate list. Well, the Andrew Ng course at least, not sure about the others.

That's correct. I realized it's not all courses free after I got my account to work.

Initially after verifying my university email address it still did nothing. It was when I entered my university email address into https://www.coursera.org/for-university-...e-students then it became clear.

Free Coursera is not yet available for this email domain
Your email domain is not included on Coursera’s list of universities and colleges. Please provide your school information so we can work to grant access to students at your school.

Then I tried my tesu email address and it worked. You'll know it works because the Coursera interface actually looks different.
