Installing Microsoft Office 365 ProPlus for Apple Macintosh

Question:
How do I download and install Microsoft Office 365 ProPlus on an Apple Macintosh?
Answer:
Please read before installing: If you have a working version of Office installed on your computer it is not necessary to install the latest version of Office 365 to your device. It is required to check to see if there are any other versions of Office installed and if so, please remove before installing Microsoft Office 365 ProPlus. Please keep in mind that once you have been out of attendance for greater than one (1) year, you are no longer eligible to receive access to the software provided by the University. At that time, you may start a subscription with Microsoft, reinstall your older version, or purchase a new version of Office. So make sure you have a copy of your older version and the product key before removing what is already installed. If you choose to re-enroll with the University, then you would again be eligible for the University provided software as an active student.
