As a member of the MSDNAA, the department in which you take
courses units is authorized to provide you with program software
for use on your personal computer. To be in compliance with the
MSDNAA program requirements, you must follow these usage
guidelines when using the program software on your computer. You
must also agree to the terms of the MSDNAA End User License
Agreement (EULA), the Amendment to Master End-User License
Agreement, and any conditions required by the academic
department.
The MSDNAA Site Administrator will be responsible for
maintaining records of student use and ensuring there is full

you agree to be bound by the terms of the EULA and the License
Amendment. If you do not agree to be bound, do not install, copy

Installation Guidelines:
- Your department will either provide server access for you
to download program software, or create up to 50 copies of
the software to be checked out on a temporary basis to
install on personal use computers. All software reproduced
for checkout will include a complete copy with all copyright
and trademark notices.
- You must be registered in at least one credit course
within the member department to be eligible to load program
software on your personal use computer. Students registered
solely for non-credit courses in the department are not
eligible to receive program software.

for use. Other qualifying students must obtain software via
the methods set up by the MSDNAA Site Administrator.

may need an Academic Alliance Product Key (“Product Key”).
The Product Key will be assigned to solely download
authorized software. You may not disclose Product Key
information to anyone else.
- The MSDNAA Site Administrator will maintain records of
downloaded software downloaded from the server or software
that is checked out. The Site Administrator will provide
those records to Microsoft upon request.
Usage Guidelines:
- You may use the software for non-commercial purposes
including instructional use, research and/or design,
development, and testing of projects for both class
assignments and tests or personal projects. You may not use
the program software for any for-profit software
development.
- When you are no longer a registered student in a
department that is a member of the MSDNAA you may no longer
receive updates for your personal use computer. However, you
may continue to use previously installed software on your
computer, provided you continue to follow program
guidelines.

EULA, the MSDNAA Site Administrator will demand confirmation
of removal of the program software on your personal use
computer.
