Indiana State University and Microsoft Corporation have entered into an annual licensing agreement of commonly used Microsoft software. The Microsoft Campus Agreement 3.4 (MSCA) licenses these products for use on all University owned computers and some personally owned computers.

ISU is funding the cost of the license leasing program centrally and making the software available to all departments. Under the agreement, the University may install any version of the supported Microsoft software products on University owned computers. The agreement also allows most currently employed faculty or staff member to install and use any of the supported Microsoft products on one computer that he or she owns. The cost to individuals and departments for the software is $5.00 per CD (e.g. Microsoft FrontPage 2003 - 1 CD, $5.00; Windows XP Professional upgrade - 1 CD, $5.00: Total cost is $10.00).

Microsoft products that will be distributed under the Microsoft Campus Agreement are listed on both the department and employee order forms at http://www.indstate.edu/oit/msca/ordrmscaa.html. Departments are encouraged to download the software and burn it to a CD or DVD.
