you can get just MS Word for mac (not the whole Office suite). The MS Office student/teacher edition is only $129 for the whole suite.
Or, Apple's Pages (from iWork) can read, edit and save to MS Office compatible files. The iWork suite is $79 i think, before any student discounts (if those apply for you), plus you get Keynote for presentations. The new version of Pages improves quite a bit on the problems i had with last years version. Definitely a good Word substitute if you only use it infrequently.
