(Image credit: Microsoft) Calling all high school graduates (or existing college students), Microsoft has just launched an exciting promotional offer to support that work/life/play student balance. It's called the Ultimate College Bundle , and it includes more than $500+ worth of freebies, such as a custom-designed Xbox controller, up for grabs when you purchase a selected Windows 11 PC. This is great news for any students needing a device to handle their coursework, as well as a dedicated gaming laptop for evening downtime and streaming TV shows. (Image credit: HP) All you need to do is verify your student status after purchase with a valid .edu college email address, and customers will receive an email with instructions on how to proceed and claim the freebies via unique promo codes. Microsoft's Ultimate College bundle offer is only valid until June 30th, 2026. For more student-only offers, check out our guides to Samsung's Student Discount as well as Apple's education offers .
