[![DNP Microsoft launches $80 Office 365 University fouryear subscription for highereducation students](http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2012/10/ms-office-365-university-10-19-12-03.jpg) ](http://www.engadget.com/2012/10/19/microsoft-launches-office-365-university/)
Microsoft's given Xbox love to PC-buying students [recently](http://www.engadget.com/2012/05/18/microsoft-buy-pc-free-xbox-360-promotion/), and it's just announced that it'll carry on that tradition with [Office 365](http://www.engadget.com/2012/09/17/microsoft-announces-office-2013-and-365-pricing-nudges-users-to/) University, by offering a special four-year, $80 subscription to higher-education students. For that sum, you'll get four years of Word, PowerPoint, Excel, OneNote, Outlook, Publisher and Access if you're seeking a sheepskin scroll, which Redmond says works out to $1.67 per month. Also included are 60 Skype world minutes per month and 27GB of Premium [SkyDrive](http://www.engadget.com/2012/08/28/microsoft-skydrive-for-android-app-now-available/) storage, along with free upgrades and the ability to install on two separate computers, to boot. That should take some of the sting out of those scholarly expenses if you need a copy, so check the source to see how to grab it.
