IU has software licensing agreements with different software companies, allowing IU to distribute software at a discounted educational price. For more, see At IU, how can I get university-distributed software?
As an IU student, you are also eligible for free downloads of many software packages including those offered by Adobe and Microsoft. See http://iuware.iu.edu/ for more information. Given that, you need not purchase any Microsoft packages (such as .trial. or .student edition. versions). Nor do you need to pay for any anti-virus packages since they are also available for download at no additional cost.
