New Student Orientation

New Software Requirement for all Incoming Undergraduate Students

  In an effort to save you money over the course of your academic career, all incoming undergraduate students are required to purchase a Microsoft Campus Agreement Software Bundle.  This requirement will ensure that all undergraduate students have access to the latest versions of Office and the operating system.  The bundle consists of Microsoft Office (for Windows or Macintosh), Microsoft operating systems (including Windows and Vista), and client access licenses for connecting to Microsoft Servers.   The bundle also provides you with upgrades for this software as long as you remain an undergraduate at Virginia Tech.  Therefore, do not purchase Microsoft Office until you come to Orientation.  Specific distribution and pricing details will be posted on Information Technology Acquisitions website at ita.vt.edu by May 15, 2009.
