Office 2003 student addtion ?

T

TimR

My daughter is in her first year of grad school in Virginia running W98 and
Office 2000 oem on an old laptop. I have ordered a new laptop with only
trial versions of Office 2003 three installed. I want to purchase Office
2003 Pro student edition for her and install it on her new laptop laptop. I
have searched the Microsoft site and feel there's no problem with her
qualifying as a student user...but...but I can't figure out "how" to qualify
?

Do you provide proof upon purchase...like at the student union...or if I buy
on line...do I send a copy of her student ID.

Or do you have to provide something when you install the software ?

Please if anyone can answer or direct me to a page that explains all this
for qualifying as a student purchase ?

Thanks, Tim R

The first place to try is the college bookstore. She does qualify for the
academic (not student) version. You could also contact Gateway or Dell. They
can sell it too but she will need to provide her school ID. It'll have to be
faxed before they release the order.

(I used to work for GTW and so I know the rules quite well.)

Most retailers are happy to take your cash without bothering to
make you provide proof of eligibility. You're mostly on the
honor system.

Generally speaking retailers cannot sell the academic version of Office Pro.
(There may be some who do but I don't think so.) The academic version of
Office Pro sells for $199. And you *do* need proof that you're a college
student. It's required by Microsoft. This is something very different from
Office for Students and Teachers.
