Microsoft

Saint Mary's College provides Microsoft 365 for Students for free to our students. Microsoft 365 for Students offers full versions of current Office software that can be downloaded and installed on students' personally-owned macOS and Windows computers. Versions of Word, PowerPoint, and Excel for mobile devices are also included with Microsoft 365 for Students. After a license has been assigned, a Saint Mary’s student can install Office software on up to five personally-owned devices. There are no monthly subscription fees associated with the Microsoft 365 for Students license. Licenses for the software can be requested online by active students during orientation and when classes are in session for the academic year. The software can then be downloaded directly from Microsoft. We do not recommend purchasing this software elsewhere.

Previous versions of Microsoft Office software may be available at Microsoft's discretion.

All Saint Mary's Students classified as full-time or part-time are eligible for the Microsoft Campus Agreement and Microsoft 365 software. Students who are enrolled at another institution as their primary location for studies (University of Notre Dame, Holy Cross College, Indiana University, Bethel College) are not eligible for this program. Saint Mary's alumnae and others who are not active students are not eligible for Microsoft Campus Agreement or Microsoft 365 software.

The Microsoft 365 for Students license will expire immediately after your student affiliation with Saint Mary’s College ends. Your student affiliation with Saint Mary’s College ends if you leave the College for any reason, including graduation. At expiration, the software will enter a reduced-functionality mode (files can be viewed but it will not be possible to edit or create new files) and the OneDrive associated with your Saint Mary’s account will no longer be accessible.

Students must complete an online form  and verify their eligibility for this program to obtain the license. Once the license has been assigned, the software can be downloaded directly from Microsoft. We do not recommend purchasing this software elsewhere.
