Brenda,

My suggestion is to do a Google search on "academic pricing and software". This will yield many results, of which you can probably pick the one that best suits your needs.
I do know that codamusic.com has full version Finale 2003 online for $300 academic price. (I guess it's 50% off). They also have various upgrades available for download, also I believe at academic prices. I don't have a lot of experience with the other software, but IMHO Finale 2002 has lots of good features that save tons of time if your focus is on your composition or arrangement and not tweaking the details of the music's appearance. As I say, just my opinion.
Good luck with finding what you need, and whatever you do, be sure to register your chosen software so you can get cheap upgrades later... (I learned this the hard way (: )
