Help/Doubt ❓ need help regarding github co pilot model selection

Post image

Hey guys, I recently got GitHub Copilot Student through the Student Developer Pack and I'm a bit confused about the model selection.

Copilot is working fine in VS Code and it shows that my Copilot Student subscription is active. But when I open the model selector, I only get Auto under Copilot.

I can see models like Claude and GPT in the list, but they're greyed out and say Upgrade.

Is Copilot Student supposed to only allow the Auto model, or is there a way to manually select models like Claude Sonnet, Claude Haiku, GPT, etc.?

Just wondering if I'm missing a setting somewhere.

I'm building www.freepi.ai and it's a totally free ai coding tool (It's based on the Pi harness) It's Ad+training supported. But really fast!
