Information on Microsoft Office Activation
Faculty:
Faculty and staff are issued laptops with Microsoft Office. Periodically they need to be connected to the network on campus to validate/activate the license for the product as we have provided.
Note: The information for HUP (home use program) is for faculty and staff only: https://www.middlesex.mass.edu/technologycenter/mccstaff/hup.aspx
Student:
Students have access to Microsoft Office365 which is web based and available for download if they choose. All students have access to Office365 through their email account but on occasion, their Microsoft account needs to be manually updated or adjusted including the license or access to download the software.
