i believe the Microsoft Office Suite will be available for you to download at no cost at emory



Unfortunately that’s not the case right now:

[Software Distribution: Emory’s Microsoft Campus Agreement (MSCA)](http://it.emory.edu/showdoc.cfm?docid=5571)



Emory negotiated and funded a Microsoft Campus Agreement for Windows Operating Systems upgrades, Microsoft Office, and certain Client Access Licenses (CALs). This agreement grants Emory faculty and staff the right to use the software covered by this agreement on institution-owned workstations.

Students and student-owned workstations are not covered by this Campus Agreement, though Emory hopes to expand the Agreement in the future to include students.
