What student doesn't want to save a few bucks? Being a full- or part-time enrolled student allows you to receive special savings on a wide selection of Microsoft software that can help you make the grade—in the classroom and at the bank. Here's how students can save Microsoft software: Find out if your school or college participates in a special Microsoft discount programMost school districts, colleges, and universities participate in a volume licensing program with Microsoft. Some institutions offer the benefits of these Microsoft programs to their students directly or through a third-party organization. Typically, these programs provide the biggest discounts. To find out if your institution participates: 1. Check the Web sites of these online resellers that handle student requests for many educational institutions: 2. Check with your institution's technology administrator.
If you don't see your institution listed on the JourneyEd or OnTheHub Web sites, check with your technology administrator's office to inquire whether your institution participates in a special licensing program that will save you money on software. You may also want to check with your institution's bookstore, computer store, or Web site. Purchase software through an education software retailerMicrosoft offers discounts to students and other qualified education users on boxed retail software products. Retail discounts provide a quick and easy way to get Microsoft software. To get your discounted retail software: 1. Contact a Microsoft Authorized Education Reseller
