The following Cornell-affiliated institutions are also covered by Cornell University's Microsoft Campus Agreement: Installing any of these versions of Windows onto a privately- or personally-owned computer is a violation of license. These installers are intended for use only by authorized Cornell University IT support personnel for installation on Cornell-owned computers. We strongly recommend that anyone still running Windows 8.1 upgrade to Windows 10 before Microsoft ends extended support. General support for Windows 8.1 ended in January 2018, and is it currently on Extended Support, which provides only security updates. Windows 8.1 Extended Support Will End January 10, 2023 Please upgrade any computer running Windows 7 to Windows 10 immediately. Consequently, it is now against Cornell's IT Security Policy to put any computer running Windows 7 onto the Cornell network. Microsoft has ended extended support for Windows 7 and no longer provides any security patches. Windows 7 No Longer Supported (January 14, 2020) Weill Cornell staff and faculty should check with their local IT providers for information about Microsoft licensing. Please note that the Weill Cornell Medical College has its own arrangement in place with Microsoft, and is not covered by the Campus Agreement.

*Affiliated institutions covered under the Campus Agreement are: Boyce Thompson Institute, Cornell Cooperative Extension, New York State Agricultural Experiment Station in Geneva, the ROTC Program at Cornell University, and the USDA facility at the Robert W.

Students, retirees, and alumni are not covered by the Campus Agreement, and are not authorized to download software covered by the Agreement. Computers must have been initially purchased with a licensed version of Microsoft Windows operating system to qualify. The Campus Agreement currently allows Cornell University staff, faculty, and affiliates* to download selected Microsoft Windows desktop operating systems and install them on computers owned by Cornell University and its affiliated institutions at no cost. Cornell University has renewed our Campus Agreement with Microsoft to provide the Desktop Bundle for all computers owned by Cornell University.įull overview of the Microsoft Campus Agreement
