Products not included in the Microsoft Campus Agreement:
Academic version is also available through the University of Iowa Bookstore for student or work at home use. Most products not included are covered by the Microsoft Select Agreement for departmental purchase.
What about systems that need a Windows operating system, but there is no record of a prior Microsoft Windows OS?
Our campus agreement is for Windows upgrades only. At times we acquire a system that does not have a Microsoft Windows OS sticker or any documentation that shows proof of licensure. Microsoft offers the "Get Genuine" program. With this program Dell can offer us licensure for these systems at a reduced cost. The cost for one license is around $185.00 and the cost for a ten pack is around $1750. Please contact Katy Daugherty, Dell Software and Peripherals - HIED, 800-901-3355, ext. 79-58418, kathryn_daugherty@dell.com.
