Q. How to install Office 365

Install Microsoft Office for free!

? What? Chattanooga State has made an agreement with Microsoft to provide the latest version of Office to every one of our students and employees for free. (Note: Office cannot be downloaded on a Chromebook or Kindle Fire, though some Office apps are available.)
This subscription-based software includes Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote, and more. You will be able to:

• Install Office on up to 5 compatible PCs (Windows 7 or later) and Macs (OS X 10.10 or later), plus 5 tablets 
• Sync devices automatically and have 1000 GB of free online storage with OneDrive for Business

IMPORTANT: All of these computers must belong to you personally! Do not install this Office account on business or campus computers. Please note that all your installations will be registered to the same account and will share files through OneDrive.

? Who? If you can currently access your Chattanooga State Office 365 email (TigerMail) account, you're eligible!

Faculty/Staff may also download Office, but this is allowed on personal computers only, NOT campus office computers! Note that your installed Office software may deactivate a few months after your contract ends or you leave employment at Chattanooga State.
