    Dear @xuexue he

    Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Q&A Forum. 

    Based on what you've described, I understand that you have successfully joined the Microsoft 365 Developer Program but received a notification stating that you do not currently qualify for the E5 developer sandbox subscription, and you want to know the steps to become eligible.

    However, as forum moderators, we do not have access to internal systems required to investigate individual account issues due to privacy and security constraints. However, for this scenario, we recommend ensuring that you meet all the eligibility requirements outlined by Microsoft for accessing the E5 developer program. These requirements are detailed in the Microsoft 365 Developer Program FAQ. In particular, we recommend reviewing the following two key topics:User's image

    If you believe you satisfy the criteria and are still experiencing difficulties, we recommend contacting Microsoft Developer Support for further assistance. Their support team is best positioned to provide direct help and resolve such issues effectively.

    We hope this information proves helpful and appreciate your understanding.
