signing up for creative cloud student

I'm a first time user looking to buy the CC student subscription. When signing up it initially asks for my email, is it asking for the student email? I would like to create the account and sign in using a different primary google email, not my school email. Is it possible to link the student email later and still get the discounted price? Or would I have to use the school email to sign in?

As far as I know, you may use your personal email account... but when I bought while working at a University, it was CS5/CS6 so things may have changed since then

When you buy an Education subscription, the terms you "click to agree" should be clear about the first/later years
