If you're a student and you want to check if you're eligible, go here an enter your school-provided email address; teachers can go here and do the same.
Those who qualify and take advantage of the offer will have access to the latest versions of Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote, Access, and Publisher, all of which can be installed on up to five PCs or Macs and up to five mobile devices. They also receive 1TB of storage on OneDrive and access to Office Online for in-browser editing.
