What happens when a student graduates or transfers to another school? When you close that student’s domain account either for graduation or because the student stops attending your school district for any reason, the student’s Office subscription obtained through your school district ends.  Students may purchase other available consumer or commercial versions of Office. Who provides customer support for the student downloads of Office? Your school district’s Help Desk provides support for the student.  If you have a student with issues downloading or activating the software, you can post your question to the Forums on https://community.Office365.com or your designated support contact with Microsoft can contact Office 365 support through the Troubleshooting section of the Office 365 community.  If students have questions about how to use the different Office products, they can submit their questions to the various forums on https://answers.microsoft.com.
