But keep checking back, as we're working on adding more ways to verify your student status all the time.

- Sign In with your Windows Live ID. If you don't have one, go get one here. Pretty basic stuff.
- Get verified as a student. The system is linked to schools and organizations around the world that can confirm student status. Simply choose your country and school, enter your info and hit submit.
- Download your products. Now remember these are professional tools. This means they are pretty big files so make sure you have the bandwidth and space to bring them to your machine. We support the latest versions of both Internet Explorer and Firefox for your download.
