Previously I’ve been posting about how to get more space for your Dropbox up to over 16Gb, that the best way to increase your Dropbox space. With Dropbox you can easily share folder for your friend, or public your folder, download and save files to your account. (Get Dropbox for MAC, iOS)

Today with Education Institution e-mail you can get 3Gb extra for two years when sign up or sign in.

To get extra 3Gb for your account, you must take the following steps:

1. Access the Space Race page

2. Sign up for the Program by entering their Higher Education Institution e-mail address. (If you have account already you do not Sign up, just Sign in to your account).

3. Verify that they are the Authorized Account Holder of the e-mail address used to sign-up for the Program.

4. Download and install the Dropbox software client (unless the client has previously been downloaded)

5. Log-in to the Dropbox software client using the Dropbox account that was registered with the program.
