Currently only students from the United States, Australia, Mexico and Taiwan are eligible. They also need a valid email address from the educational institute and be able to provide proof of enrollment if requested. Office Ultimate 2007 contains all Office 2007 applications in one package, including the obvious Word 2007, Excel 2007, Powerpoint 2007 but also rather exotic or lesser known applications like InfoPath 2007 or Groove 2007.

The interesting aspect of this new offer is that there are three additional products that will be available from September 8 on. Those are Windows Vista Ultimate Upgrade for $64.95, Office Language Packs 2007 for $9.95 and Office Visio Professional 2007 for $55.95.

There is also good news for students from other countries. Microsoft plans to provide them with the same deal. Countries currently listed include United Kingdom, Canada, Italy and France. Students should check with the IT department at their University because they sometimes provide them with even better deals.
