Should you prefer to run Windows 10 on your UCT-owned Apple computer, recent changes to our site licence with Microsoft now entitle all UCT Apple users* to install Windows 10 without needing an additional base Windows licence to have Windows installed.

As per this chart, the Apple Macintosh operating systems qualify as an underlying operating system for upgrade for academic agreements.

*As with all UCT Windows software, the machine needs to be owned by UCT for UCT software to be installed. This licence does not apply to personal machines.
