Will I be able to keep the copy of Office once I graduate or leave UNA?

No. The install of Office is tied to your username@una.edu  email account. You must log into Office 365 at least once every 30 days so Office can verify that you are still an enrolled student. If you are or were a student who is no longer enrolled and access to your email has been removed, the office installs you performed under the account will become read-only, so you will not be able to edit files with them.
 

UNA  participates in the Microsoft Student Advantage program. This program provides free access to the full versions of Microsoft Office to enrolled students for home use. Instructions on how to install the software are listed below:
