Yes, indeed, you will need an office program for your computer. Here are some options for obtaining Office.
Microsoft Office
Microsoft Office is the de facto standard for creating documents.
We recommend purchasing a copy of it for your studies at Ursuline College. You can purchase it where ever software is sold.
Or, for the best price, you can also purchase it through the College web site. Anyone with an Ursuline email address
can purchase Microsoft programs here, Buy Microsoft Software
Open Office
If you are on a tight budget and want to save money, then Open Office might be for you.
Although files created with Open Office are not 100% compatible with Microsoft Office, the program still works well on its own.
OpenOffice is free to download, use, and distribute.
PowerPoint Viewer
If all you want to do is be able to view PowerPoints, Microsoft makes available for free a PowerPoint viewer.
Don't have PowerPoint? Need to open a PowerPoint presentation?
The PowerPoint 2003 Viewer lets you view full-featured presentations created in any version of PowerPoint.
