Asked Questions.
Microsoft Select Agreement-Effective February 1, 2006
The Microsoft Select Agreement allows the CSU campus community
(including Auxiliary Organizations) to purchase software licenses
and media not included in the above Campus Agreement at significant
discounts. The CSU Select 6 Program is administered by the Office
of the Chancellor with each Campus and Auxiliary being encouraged
to individually “enroll” in the CSU Select 6 Agreement.
Campus enrollment in the CSU Select 6 program allows each enrolling
entity to receive its own installation media, media updates and
installation key codes. This method also allows for easy reporting
of CSU Systemwide software licensing activities.
Individual enrollments in the Select 6 program will enable the
enrolling entity to more easily track its licensing activities
as Microsoft (hardcopy) licenses will be sent directly to the
organization. Enrollment is free and includes shipments of media
and updates. Media received under the Select 6 program can be
copied and used to administer the Campus Agreement installations.
The Select 6 media can not be distributed to faculty and staff
for the Campus Agreement work-at-home program. rev.

To enroll in the Select 6 program, a single Campus and Auxiliaries
must have their designated administrators contact CSU’s

about the Select 6 program. Campuses that are already in an
individual Select program may choose to stay with that program
