Who has successfully verified their Dreamspark account?

[trettet]

---

I'm from USC, di cya registered to Dreamspark Premium (disappointing but there's nothing I could do here) but Microsoft says any Higher Ed school will get verified but I'm not too sure what account I'm getting standard or premium. I'm still undergoing verification which could take a week.

Known schools in Cebu who has a subscription of DS Premium:

• CIT-U
• USJ-R
• UC
• AMA Cebu
• UP Cebu
• CIC
• SWU

http://aka.ms/dsproductlist - This is the full list of Microsoft Products you can download for FREE and they are genuine keys. It includes Visual Studio ULTIMATE 2013 and Professional 2015 and Windows OS's up until Windows 10.

Office isn't available through Dreamspark, only through Office University which is discounted, but some office apps are available such as Access, Groove, Project and Visio.

Dreamspark accounts are only active for 12 months and you have to reapply for verification again, BUT keys will NEVER expire since they are treated as retail keys but once your account has expired you cannot get new keys and download links for softwares.

Do not attempt to violate TOS or your account and your keys will automatically be blocked if detected by Microsoft activation servers.

If your school doesn't have Premium, then you won't get Premium.

Verification only takes a few minutes, if you have a school assigned email address.

actually what I have understood, basing from the website and other people's experience. You will get a Premium DS account if you're under a STEM Department and you will get verified even if your school doesn't have DS Premium. The school can benefit from DS Premium by having lots of Windows Licenses for Lab PCs.

But still I'll keep you posted for results and regarding school emails AFAIK no school in Cebu so far gives .edu.ph email to their students...

What website did you get that from?

Schools have to pay a certain amount to subscribe to MS DreamSpark.
There are two types of subscription levels -- Standard ($) and Premium ($$$).

Yeah, if a school has a STEM program then they're eligible for DS Premium, but they still need to pay the Premium Fee.

Sure you'll get verified as long as the school is subscribed to DreamSpark, whether Standard or Premium.

"The school can benefit from DS Premium by having lots of Windows Licenses for Lab PCs." Where does it say that in the agreement?

Your school is not a member of DreamSpark.
This only applies to subscribers to the program.

Why do you need DreamSpark? Are you a CS major?
You should tell your STEM department to subscribe to DreamSpark Premium.



You can get tons of software for your own use, here are just some of them:







If you register on your own, these are the software you'll get:

Since you don't have a school email address and your school isn't a member, I'm assuming you sent them documents for verification.

It's been more than a week, what happened to your DreamSpark application.
Was it denied.
