With the arrival of Apple’s MacBook Neo, college students can enjoy an affordable, colorful laptop. Now, Microsoft is trying to make its laptops a little more appealing to the college crowd.
They are doing a great job with great college bundles. Upon purchase of a new Windows 11 laptop, students get one year of Microsoft 365 Premium and Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, as well as a free Xbox Wireless Controller. This is a product worth $624.86 that students get completely free.
A one-year subscription to Microsoft 365 Premium usually costs $199.99, and includes access to all the essential Microsoft apps like Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. It also features cloud storage and advanced security to keep your papers organized and safe. But college should be all work and no play.
For some well-earned downtime, a year of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate is also included. It has access to over 500 games on Xbox consoles and PC. Not to mention, you’ll receive a free wireless Xbox controller for all your gaming needs.
To get the bundle, you just need to purchase an eligible Windows 11 laptop, which are available at Best Buy, Walmart, Amazon, and Microsoft. Eligible devices include Microsoft Surface and Lenovo Yoga 7i 2-in-1 laptop.

Once your student status is verified, students will receive an email to redeem their Xbox Game Pass and Microsoft 365 Premium subscription. Additionally, they will receive a unique promo code to redeem a custom controller within three days of verifying their student status.
