Office for Education - a step-by-step guide

If you are a student, you can buy the cheap office for education to organize your studies. In this guide, we will show you how it works.

How to set up your office for education

First you have to register and prove that you are authorized to use the software:

1. To do this, go to the Office for Education page and enter the validation key. You can get this from your educational institution.
2. If you don't have a validation key, go to this page and register there to receive one.
3. After successfully entering the key, you will be asked to enter your personal data. You will then be shown a temporary password.
4. Change the temporary password by logging into the Microsoft portal.
5. When this step is complete, Office is prepared for the download. This can sometimes take several hours. We therefore recommend waiting a day.
6. Log in to the portal again the next day. You can now download Office. Simply click on "Install". You may need to confirm this with User Account Control.
