Help with a dell purchase

I want to jump on the 200 dollars off the 2001fp dell deal. WIU (The school I attend) says I can get up to 8% off on dells items. How would I apply this discount online, or do I have to go through the school to set that all up? Surely some of your schools have done the same thing...

they should have a code. My company has a purchase program though dell and if we want to buy anything we have to use the company code to get the discounts.
 

They have a code, at least one that I should say over the phone, but nothing for online, although they give a link and all that jazz, no code is asked for. Its odd...I suppose that deal doesnt really run out until wed, so I will contact the school monday and see whats up...but its just annoying.

With my school, there is a website on the technology admin page with a link to Dell with the code inserted, and the code seperately so you can call and give it to them.

However, you may not be able to use both... I don't know what the deal is for the 2001, but some of them only apply when you make a purchase from the Home & Home office section, or Business section. Best bet is to call and talk to a rep, and make some fuss if he doesn't let you do it.

I fondly remember when Dell had the 1901FP for $463 ouch that was hot. I should have ordered 50+ instead of the 20 I ordered :(
