See below for instructions on how to access your subscription and installation during your studies at Macquarie.
Microsoft for Students provides Macquarie University students access to digital downloads of the Microsoft Office Suite for free on up to five PCs and five mobile devices, including Windows, macOS, iOS and Android.
If you are currently enrolled, you have been automatically granted the full license of Microsoft 365 with your student email address.
To install the full version of Microsoft Office on your computer(s):
If you have installed Microsoft 365 on more than five devices and you now need to install it on the sixth device, you may deactivate one of the previous installations to free up a license for this new installation.
Once you have graduated or discontinue your University study, your Microsoft 365 license will be removed. It is your responsibility to make your own arrangement to backup and transfer documents and files stored in OneDrive and Sharepoint to a suitable storage device or to another online storage environment by that time.
If you wish to continue to have the right to continue to use Microsoft 365, you will need to make your own arrangements to purchase and/or subscribe to Microsoft 365.
