It's less that I wrote previously (3100). You can have it by the month as well. There is a special price for students, but only if you can prove you are studying at a Swiss Uni. Whether student or not, if you are 16-25, you get student rate.

Also you don't need to be resident to buy this. There is even a corporate GA, which is intended for companies to enable employees who have occasional need for GA to share one.

However, beware. Public transport has become so popular that it's difficult to get a seat if you travel in peak hours, especially on Intercity trains.
