Student Software Inquiry: Windows 11 Education License missing from Azure

Question

Hello,

I am a full-time student at Glendale Community College.

I am writing to inquire about the availability of the Windows 11 Education license for students. I have successfully logged into the Azure Dev Tools for Teaching portal using my student email, but the "Windows 11 Education" operating system is not listed in the software catalog only the "Server" and "SQL" tools are visible.

Could you please confirm if GCC provides the free Windows 11 Education license to general students? If so, is there a different portal (such as OnTheHub or Kivuto) I should be using instead of Azure?

If this license is not available for free, does the college have a discounted arrangement with CollegeBuys or the bookstore where I can purchase it?

Thank you for your time and assistance.

Sincerely,

Anahit

Hey there, Abdalian, Miro

What is available depends on the region you are based in. I am based in the UK. When I look in the software catalogue, I can see Windows 11 Edition, version 25H2

If you can't see Windows 11 Educational Edition available, then it is not available in the software catalogue in your region.

Hope this helps,
Nathan
