THIS IS FOR COMPUTER SCIENCE STUDENTS ONLY!!! PLEASE DO NOT TELL YOUR FRIENDS AROUND CAMPUS ABOUT IT. NOTE: all correspondence with Microsoft Imagine must be done via a Colostate email account! The Microsoft Imagine web page is: https://e5.onthehub.com/WebStore/Security/Signin.aspx?ws=53099b79-839b-e011-969d-0030487d8897&vsro=8&action=signout CONNECT AND DOWNLOAD ONLY VIA MICROSOFT INTERNET EXPLORER 1. Information regarding login and password: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- VERY IMPORTANT: Microsoft Imagine accounts are created approx. the 2nd week of each term. Microsoft Imagine login info is sent to each user's CSU email account. If you do not know your Microsoft Imagine passwd (it is a unique passwd -- not related to any CSU or CS passwd) then go to this page: https://e5.onthehub.com/WebStore/Security/Signin.aspx?ws=53099b79-839b-e011-969d-0030487d8897&vsro=8&action=signout Click on the link in "Forgot Your Password" and enter your CS email address. The passwd will be sent to your CS email account. You can't enter any other email address because DreamSpark logins are CS email addresses. Do not try to register! The only way accounts can be created is via the CS Department class registration lists. 2. The Microsoft Imagine Program: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Microsoft Imagine Program enables CSU Computer Science faculty members, undergraduate majors, graduate students, and certain classes to acquire software at minimal cost. This service is provided using ELMS (e-academy License Management System) and supports multiple distribution schemes. Currently there are two distribution schemes available to CSU Computer Science users: 1) Media Sales. Under this scheme you pay for the cost of the media (cd-roms) and shipping and the disks containing the requested software is delivered to you. 2) Download. Under this scheme you will download the desired software at no cost. It is strongly recommended that if the media sales option is available for the software you need that you take that option. This is due to the fact that once you are issued a product using either distribution scheme you are required to get approval to reacquire that product (even if attempting to use the same scheme). This means that you are entitled to only one copy of a given product. IMPORTANT: whenever you download software from the ELMS Website, connect via Microsoft Internet Explorer ONLY! If you try with Firefox, for instance, you will have problems. Microsoft Office is NOT available via Microsoft Imagine. It is NOT a development tool.
