Fort Hays State University has partnered with e-academy to provide an online Software Center for sales of software products to our students, faculty, and staff at discount prices. This partnership has enabled us to expand our software offerings and provides a convenient online purchase process.

Microsoft Select products include a license. Microsoft has now made their Student Select products available to all currently employed faculty and staff, also. Microsoft Work At Home products are available only to faculty and staff who are covered under Fort Hays State University’s campus license agreement (while they are actively employed); these products provide the media only, without a permanent license.

Adobe products are available only through a student licensing agreement.

To view product information, prices, and system requirements for the products you are eligible to purchase, log in using the Software Center Sign-In link below.

You are not required to use this service. The products available on this site provide the same functionality as products purchased through the academic retail market; the only difference is cost.

Notice regarding ALL products purchased through the Software Center:
Do not lose your product installation key/code. It cannot be recovered, and a new key CANNOT be issued. More information...

Eligibility and Sign-In Information

To become eligible to make purchases from the Software Center, students must pay tuition and fees for the current semester. Students remain eligible to make purchases until the end of the last semester for which their tuition and fees have been received.

Faculty and staff become eligible after their employment information has been entered on the Fort Hays State University personnel system and they have obtained a Lotus Notes e-mail account. Currently employed faculty and staff who are covered under FHSU’s Work at Home license agreement with Microsoft are eligible to purchase Work At Home products. Faculty and staff remain eligible to make purchases until they terminate employment. Currently employed faculty and staff who are not eligible to purchase Work at Home products are listed in the site as "Academic Users."

Fort Hays State University provides lists of eligible students, faculty, and staff to e-academy. After your account has been created on the site, one message will be sent to your FHSU e-mail address providing your information for accessing the Software Center. The message will be sent from e-academy.com.
