[no longer available] Free Win 8.1 key to Dreamspark members

Update: I just spoke on live chat with ACM support. Dreamspark access has been removed for ACM students. She said, and I quote "Access is now available directly through DreamSpark. To access DreamSpark’s Premium Software, please sign up at http://www.dreamspark.com. Your student status is verified through the use of a school e-mail address or student ID card."

Even though I have access to dreamspark via ACM. Dreamspark link has been removed from 'My services' on ACM website. I access it directly from this link https://e5.onthehub.com/WebStore/Security/Signin.aspx?ws=7bac12f0-9f9b-e011-969d-0030487d8897
 
Microsoft defines school email address as - .edu email. 99% of Indian educational institutions do not have it.
So, now the only option would be to get the software directly from the school / college distribution.
 
I needed an Ms Server 2012 & 2008 key as rest all I have bought - Just asking.. can I ask my sister to create ID using her Student proofs? Well again she doesn't has any fancy email ID or something but just student admit cards, ID's - something that you get from Govt colleges.

Will this work guys?

I bought Adobe CS6 and they were happy with those proofs.
 
In the long list of Universities I see... heaps of them under Dreamspark Premium membership.. those Uni guys can have some really heavy stuffs.[DOUBLEPOST=1411205343][/DOUBLEPOST]Just wanted to share that I got the keys of Server 2012 & 2008 - SQL Servers which was purely required for my learning perspective. I asked my sister to create an account of her in DS so that I can get them..(Luckily she is still student)... Happy now and glad for her. :)

Shame that Windows 7/8 license is missing but I can make things up to her. Thanks guys..thanks eternoMind..thanks so much.
