Description
Office 365 desktop applications are offered for free to current active registered students here at Gannon.
More Information
-
Active, full-time or part-time Students at qualifying schools are eligible. A Student email address is required.
-
If you are eligible, you can use the plan until you graduate or are no longer enrolled at a qualified school. Student eligibility may be re-verified at any time. At expiration, the Office applications enter a reduced-functionality mode, which means documents can be viewed but it isn't possible to edit or create new documents. In addition, online services associated with the school email address, for example Office Online and OneDrive, will no longer work.
-
Gannon ITS will provide assistance with your email account for things such as not receiving emails, not being able to log in, etc. Any other information related to Office365 can be found on Microsoft's site. We do not provide assistance with OneDrive or any other office apps within Office365.
