"University of Texas' IHG code (99502056) is an academic institutional code. IHG enforcement: Holiday Inn / Crowne Plaza near UT Austin essentially never verifies academic rates. InterContinental Austin (if applicable) might theoretically ask, but university codes are the lowest-enforcement category across all IHG properties. No UT+IHG verification incident documented in public forums."

"I work for BofA and the internal discounts website didn't list codes, instead directing employees to contact individual properties. I later confirmed the code is 109568. Unless you're employed by one of those companies, I would avoid using these codes. They do often ask for ID at InterContinental properties, though Holiday Inn locations rarely enforce."

"Arizona State University's IHG code (ASU) is an academic institutional code. University codes at IHG properties are used primarily for conference and academic travel. No FlyerTalk thread discusses ASU IHG verification incidents. Academic/education sector codes at IHG are the lowest-enforcement category — holiday Inn / Crowne Plaza near Phoenix (where ASU's main campus is located) are familiar with ASU travelers and rarely request ID."
