Office 365 is a software application package provided by Microsoft. It allows students access to several Microsoft Office Online applications and 1TB of cloud storage via OneDrive. It will allow you to access, create, edit and delete documents online via any device with internet access without the use of a USB flash drive or hard drive.

Office 365 offers you all the familiar applications you need to support you in your studies such as Word 2016, PowerPoint 2016 and Excel 2016 – anywhere, anytime, and across virtually any device.
