Welcome to Jim Baen's UNIVERSE, a magazine of science fiction, fantasy, and fact.

Subscriber discounts

Blind & Handicapped

We offer three discount rates for the blind and handicapped.

If you qualify, eventually, but not quite yet, we will let you choose which of them you can afford. If you don't need the discount, we ask you not to use it. But we do this on the honor system, so if you do require the discount, feel free to take it. Just please select the highest one you can handle financially.

Students

We also offer college students a discount rate of $18 for six issues, and high school or middle school students a discount rate of $12. We'll have a way for you to qualify before June. Please check back. Again, if you don't need the discount, we ask you not to use it. But we'll take your word for it, if you do.

Military

For U.S. military people on active duty, we offer two discount rates:

The first six issues of Universe for $18
The first six issues of Universe for $12

As with all the discounts, we let you decide which rate you can afford. If you can afford the standard rate ($30 for six issues), please pay it. But no questions are asked, so if you need either of the discounts, by all means take it. Just please select the highest one you can manage in your circumstances.

To qualify for the U.S. military discount,we'll have a place to click soon.

Developing Nations

We intend eventually to offer three discount rates for readers from developing countries. If you qualify, which you will be able to do soon, we let you choose which of them you can afford. If you don't need the discount, we ask you not to use it. But we do this on the honor system, so if you do require the discount, feel free to take it. Just please select the highest one you can handle financially.
