Professional Developer and Designer tools for students at NO charge. (FREE)
DreamSpark is simple, it's all about giving students Microsoft professional-level developer and design tools at no charge so you can chase your dreams and create the next big breakthrough in technology - or just get a head start on your career.
Who can get this right now?
DreamSpark is available to millions of college/university students around the world. The list of countries can be viewed during the student verification process. If you are not residing in one of the countries listed, keep checking back as we will be adding more countries throughout the year.
Does that mean that I might not get in?
Possibly, if you are not residing in one of the countries listed, not attending an accredited college/university or not a member of one of the student organizations that we're connected with. But keep checking back, as we're working on adding more ways to verify your student status all the time.
*If you're a student you should really check this out. I myself have installed Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 Professional Edition (A $600 cost) for free. There is plenty of other software to choose from too. Don't worry if your college is not listed. You can still get verified. I go to a horrible Community College yet was still able to get verified in a couple of minutes. When verified, the software link is emailed to you within 24 hours. I am majoring in Computer Science, so I have found this software extremely helpful. I hope you guys do too!
