Microsoft has just announced that all university and college students would get a special Office 365 version called University that is scheduled to be released in the first quarter of 2013.

The productivity suite will include Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, Excel, OneNote, Outlook, Publisher and Access, and will be priced at $79.99 (€61.5) per four years.

Of course, it’ll offer the same great features as all the other Office 365 versions, including SkyDrive support, two installations support (PC or Mac) plus an additional 20 GB Premium SkyDrive storage for a total of 27 GB.

“Full- and part-time enrolled university and college students, faculty and staff in accredited institutions are eligible to purchase Office 365 University. Higher-education students, faculty and staff must verify their eligibility online as part of the Office 365 University product activation process,” Microsoft said.
