Hi there,
I can confirm that Aston has an educational agreement with Microsoft which allows them to provide you with access to Microsoft Office 365. With this, you should be able to install the full office suite on your personal Laptop or Desktop, Install and use the Mobile versions of the applications on your Apple or Android devices.
I have used this all my years at Aston so far and haven't had to pay for it. Once you get your university email you can sort this out.
If you're a student, check with your school 'cause some unis give Microsoft Office 365 for free. No need to pay if they do!
But if you gotta buy it, I found a sweet deal on Microsoft Office 2021 Pro here. It’s a one-time payment, no subscriptions, and it worked great for me!
