Stick with IPS ( Nano/Black preferably ) or full 5/6K ( not 5K2K ) or the new OLEDs with RGB Stripe / Tandem OLED screens for mac.

Also, use THIS [betterdisplay.pro]to view all possible resolutions and use the one that works best for your use case.

I'd stay away from most 2K/4K monitors ( especially TN/VA panels ) and older OLEDs for text clarity. You need a monitor with great PPI ( pixels per inch ) to avoid text fringing.

Is EDU verification instant or do you wait for approval? Worried the price will change before I'm in.
