Malaysia store for education price doesn't seem to need any verification.

US/Canada etc will make you select your province/state and then followed by your school.

Btw, we can't buy from other countries Apple store because they don't allow billing from a non US (if it's apple US store) credit card.

I've tried this before, and they had a disclaimer there that said it.

Anyways now Malaysia has an Apple Online store so that's just fantastic!
