susanah4 Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 (edited) I see it's free to students but it looks like you have to have and email address with .edu. If you paid for it what is the best way to do it? We mainly want access to Word this year. Edited June 19, 2017 by susanah4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EKS Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 Aren't .edu addresses reserved for colleges and universities? Even large public school districts don't have them (that I've seen). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caroline Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 (edited) Aren't .edu addresses reserved for colleges and universities? Even large public school districts don't have them (that I've seen). Our public schools have .edu email addresses for faculty and students. Our school system owns an enterprise license to MS Office and our students get it that way.

Lanny Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 If you refer to a version that you can Download and install onto your Windows PC, probably no. My DD has an account to use it Online and that is free. I think it is a limited version of Office that she has access to? She also uses LibreOffice, which one can legally download and use, free. I have access to something called "Microsoft Office Online" and I think this is the login URL. https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/login but that does not seem to work... I think that is what my DD uses. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkT Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 LibreOffice is excellent - we have that for both Windows and Linux - save in MS format (such as .docx) before sending to the teacher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JanetC Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Google docs is another free alternative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
