What are the latest changes to SPSS at Wayne State?
SPSS for Students is now available as a self service download (free) through the C&IT Help Desk store at commerce.wayne.edu/helpdesk.
We've updated our process to allow those with student only (not employee) status 24/7 instant access to download the software through our online store. If you are only a student (e.g. not faculty or staff) please do not complete the SPSS Employee/Student Exception Form as this is only for those with dual statuses (e.g. student/faculty, student/staff.)
