Answer 1

Things might have changed, but I think you still have to get your own.

They partner with venders for discounts (like all the other schools) and you would be eligible for the general "student" discount.  See bottom of faq below.

You'd probably be purchasing from a company like journeyed (included in link to see prices).  That's where I got my software from.
