any way i can find out if i get free vista upgrade from being at a college/uni?

[unwashed potato!]

pretty sure that this happens, students get a free upgrade to one of the vistas if their course requires it?

If this does happen is there any way to find out before joining the college. I ask as i hopefully should be going to college in september, and i want to upgrade to vista, but as college is so close i'd hate to upgrade and then find out i would have got it free.

thanks

I believe this is what you want:

i checked on this site and it doesn't list my college. Does that mean the college definatly doesn't have this or is there a chance that it has just not been listed? I hopefully will be studying computing HND so would have thought it would be included as one of the local schools has it for I.T lessons.

The plan is to go to uni after 1 year at cols as im doing a uni type course which some reason if i do well i can skip into second year of uni, if that makes sense. Does that mean i can then upgrade to the business one then once at uni, and get my money back for whatever i spend if i was to buy home now?
