Students at eligible schools can often get Microsoft 365 Education for free, which may include the full desktop apps like Access depending on what the school provides.

To try to get Access at no cost as a student:

1. Go to the Microsoft 365 Education sign-up page and sign up using a valid school email address from an eligible institution: Get Office 365 for free.
2. After verification, sign in at https://office.com with the same school account.
3. If the subscription your school gives you includes desktop apps, select Install Microsoft 365 from Microsoft365.com to download and install the Office apps on the PC. If Access is part of that license, it will be installed with the other desktop apps.
4. If Access does not appear after installation, the school’s license likely does not include it. In that case, there is no supported way to get the full desktop Access app for free from Microsoft.

If the school is not part of the Microsoft 365 Education program or does not provide desktop apps, only the free web apps (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote, Teams, etc.) will be available in the browser, and Access will not be included.

For general free Office tools if full desktop apps are not available, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and OneNote can be used online via Microsoft 365 Education, and for a free desktop alternative to Office programs, an open-source suite such as LibreOffice can be considered.
