ArcGIS @ Home

Each student will receive a 12 month educational license for ArcGIS 9.2. This software includes single-use code. This means you cannot install the software on more than 1 computer.

When registering the software onb your own computers, you are prompted to specify which extensions you would like to trial. You need to select at least 'Spatial Analyst', '3D Analyst', and 'Geostatistical Analyst'. It does you no harm, however, to simply select all of them.

From ESRI:

Please advise each student to review the site listed below before installing the software:

Please also advise the students that as they register the software, they should make sure to write out the full school name in the organization field rather than using any acronyms, the word "Student", or the word "Self". When those words or initials are used, there is a delay in the registration time as it is required that ESRI manually review the registration rather than having the process be completed automatically.

It is advisable that you install ArcGIS 9.2 Service Pack 6. You want the ArcGIS Desktop (ArcInfo, ArcEditor, ArcView) version.
