Is 2012 R2 Standard or Essentials available via Dreamsparks Student?

Question

I cant tell from the Dreamspark Software Catalogue if it is actually available, as the description of the Windows 2012 R2 Update sort of implies its just an update rollup, and has pre-requisites for installation...  However, I can see Essentials as an option in the dropdown box...

Can anyone confirm?

Answer 1

I'm not sure (I don't work on DreamSpark), but I believe that what students see in their software catalogs is entirely up to the admins of the school's dreamspark store.  Based on that I'd guess that you're best off speaking to the person that gave you the dreamspark student account.  

You'll have to contact dreamspark support to confirm.  Start here:  https://www.dreamspark.com/Support/FAQ/Default.aspx

Thanks,
