So the title is correct – you can now get Microsoft Office for free if you are Student and Teacher.
Its known as friction free but how does it work and where do you go to get it?
The solution is part of Office 365 and even if your school doesn’t have it, you can still get Office for free by registering.
So to get it, if you are a student you need to go to office.com/getoffice365 and if you are a teacher go to office.com/teachers.
What do I get?
- Microsoft Word
- Microsoft Excel
- Microsoft PowerPoint
- Microsoft Outlook
- Microsoft OneNote
- Microsoft Publish
- One Drive for Business (1TB of Storage)
How to get Office 365
Its important to know your school email address as you will need to know this as part of the subscription process. Go to the correct URL above for student or teacher.
Click on Find out if you’re eligible

The website will now do a check to see if your school already has Office 365. If it does it will ask you to log in. If you don’t, it will ask you to create a username and password.
