Home Use Program
MUSC has purchased the right for you to use Microsoft Software at home under its Microsoft Home Use Program. MUSC Faculty and Staff are eligible for the Microsoft Home Use Program software.
The Home Use Program entitles each qualified employee to a single license of a qualifying Microsoft software program, to be installed on the employee’s home computer.  Employees may not make additional copies of the software.  If you leave the company, your employer discontinues its Software Assurance coverage, or you are no longer a user of the licensed software as part of your employment, your license terminates and you should discontinue use of the software.  Although you cannot purchase more than one license, it does allow for 2 installations on (1) PC and (1) “portable device” (i.e. laptop).

The Home Use Program media and license can be purchased from Compusult.  Please contact Compusult for details at 1-800-992-6058.

We have an EndNote Site License for all Faculty, Students, and Staff with home use. Media can be downloaded via the MUSC Software Download page at http://www.musc.edu/infoservices/software/. The point of contact for this application is Teri Lynn Herbert at 792-1370. 

We also have EndNote Web available to all Faculty, Staff, and Students.  EndNote Web is a Web-based bibliographic service for students and researchers that organizes personal reference collections and saves time retyping references for course work and publication.  EndNote Web can be accessed going to http://www.myendnoteweb.com/.

Adobe Student Licensing Option (Available to faculty and staff as well)

We now have the Adobe Student Licensing Option available. This option provides significant savings on certain Adobe products and is available to all faculty, staff and students.

Select Adobe products can be obtained from Compusult as follows.
Each order will receive one license and one CD per unit of product ordered. Each CD has a unique product coupon code. Once each student, faculty member, or staff member has received the license and CD, he or she must log in to a dedicated Adobe website to register the license and unlock the software.

Upgrade pricing is not available through Adobe’s current education programs. If a product version changes, however, current students, faculty, and staff may purchase the new version to continue to take advantage of the spectacular discounts offered in this program. If a student has graduated and is no longer eligible for education discounts, he or she may purchase a standard commercial upgrade of the new version.

Students, faculty and staff may purchase only one copy of a particular product within a 12-month period. They may purchase software for their personal use only and may not resell or distribute the software.

Installation support is available by contacting Adobe Customer Service; toll free, at 800-833-6687.

Coupon redemption or lost serial number support is available by emailing an inquiry to custservice@adobe.studentlicensing.com.

Students, faculty, and staff who obtain software under this program from your institution are responsible for registering the software through a dedicated Adobe website. The website address and unique product coupon code are provided on the CD media. Registration provides students, faculty, and staff with a unique serial number, which activates a license to use the product. The license is personal to the individual, not the institution.

Adobe allows returns only for previous-version products purchased through the Student and Teacher Licensing Program at the time of a new product release. Returns are based on certain guidelines.

For questions or concerns, please email sales@compusult.com or call 800-992-6058. Orders can be completed with Compusult online via MUSC’s Service Site.
