Find answers to commonly asked questions

What is the price of this edition, and what does it include?

For information on Google Workspace for Education pricing and features please visit our comparison chart.

Are there different tiers of pricing for some users versus all users at my institution?

No. Since Education Standard is priced by enrollment (per student), your institution can bring Education Standard benefits to the entire education community. For every four student licenses bought, you’ll receive one staff license. The minimum purchase requirement is determined by school size, so you never purchase more than you need.

Can schools purchase Education Standard for just some of the school’s faculty/staff?

No, Education Plus and Education Standard are both licensed as full-domain editions. Schools can purchase licenses of either Education Plus or Education Standard according to the total student enrollment.

How do I purchase this edition?

Education Standard is available through these authorized Google Workspace for Education partners. To get in touch and learn more, please complete the form here. If you’re already working with a partner, you can reach out to them directly.

How much storage does Education Standard offer?

Institutions with Education Standard have a shared pool of 100TB of storage, which they can manage and allocate as they see fit. Please reach out to your admin to explore options for additional storage. Please visit our Help Center for more details.

Are there staff and student licenses in the Education Plus edition?

Yes, schools purchasing Education Standard and Education Plus for all students will receive one staff license for every four student licenses purchased.

Are there differences between the staff and student licenses?

All paid Google Workspace for Education editions are available as annual subscriptions, and pricing is locked for the duration of the subscription term. However, institutions can also purchase the Teaching and Learning Upgrade on a monthly subscription, as an alternative to purchasing it as an annual subscription.
