How to Install Microsoft Office 365 ProPlus – University IT
Faculty, staff, and students in the following departments can download the latest version of Microsoft Office free of charge as part of the Microsoft Campus Agreement:
- Arts, Sciences & Engineering
- Eastman School of Music
- River Campus Libraries
- Simon School of Business
- University IT and CIRC
- Warner School of Education
You can install Microsoft Office on up to five devices, either University owned or personally owned.
Note: Students leaving University of Rochester (by graduating or otherwise) and faculty and staff leaving University of Rochester (by retiring or otherwise) will need to purchase Office to continue using it. You will be prompted by Microsoft to purchase Office the next time you launch the software. If you don’t purchase Office, you will still be able to open the documents you created but won’t be able to edit them or create new documents.
Before installing or upgrading Microsoft Office on a University-owned device, contact your local IT support specialist.
