Copilot grants you access to Microsoft’s standard generative AI license. Your university license does not grant you access to Microsoft’s premium services, such as Copilot Pro and Microsoft 365 Copilot.
Note: Microsoft has several products called Copilot. This product refers specifically to the chat version, which accesses the content in the app you’re currently using. Other versions, such as Copilot for M365, have different levels of access to content.
You are responsible for following UW–Madison and Universities of Wisconsin policies when using Copilot and other generative AI services.
