Yes
I bought a subscription for my wife cos she is in school right now and we wait for confirmation email for access to MSDN AA.

Hi there, I too just registered as I am a current student. How do you gain access to the MSDN AA ?? I registered the $19 account and it makes no mention of an MSDN account. I tried to login via the link you provided but it says my username and password are incorrect... Im confused...

You have to wait for payment to process.

Can someone please explain what this website is? it's far to confusing to understand it....to me. Is it online school books? or complete computing courses, because I left college since I thought it'd be better to just jump straight to my major of IT stuff instead of wasting time in dorm and useless classes I don't need.

oh, I see, thank you for clarifying that!

That's right but also you have to sign up for the web account and you'll have all the info in there about your subscription.
Open web account here after you paid for subscription:

Either address is acceptable. You will also receive an address @acm.org for redirects.

 

[MrF430]

Im a bit confused about this though, in a sense that, well, anyone can lie and fill it out as a student or a pro to get this $180+ OS for $19 to $100... that makes little sense to me....

 

[Antman]

Anyone can, not everyone will.

Can someone pls, tell me the steps to get this membership ? I just messed up the thing.

That is a question that should be directed to staff, as no one else can answer you.
