Overview

Students at the University of Tokyo can obtain a license to upgrade Windows 10 or Windows 11 to the Education edition. This license is provided as part of the UTokyo Microsoft License.

Scope of use and directions

• The target is a privately owned PC, and only one PC can be applied.
  • Please note that it cannot be used on PCs owned by the university, etc.
• You can continue to use the upgraded PC even after you leave the university due to graduation, etc.
  • No uninstallation is required.
• Only students can use it. Please understand that faculty and staff cannot use it.
