Office 2013 and Microsoft Home Use Program

Posted by on Wednesday, December 12, 2012 in Blog.

We expect Digital River, the company Microsoft uses to administer the Microsoft Home Use Program (HUP), to offer Office Professional Plus 2013 for Windows for $9.95 through HUP by mid-January 2013.

Vanderbilt employees are eligible to buy Office for PC or Office for Mac through the Home Use Program. This is a benefit of Vanderbilt’s Campus Agreement.

Employees who bought Office 2010 for Windows or Office 2011 for Mac through the Home Use Program in the past are eligible to buy Office 2013. If you buy Office 2013, you will not be able to buy the next version of Office for Mac (i.e. Office 2014). We expect Microsoft to release Office 2014 for Mac during the second half of 2013.
