Can I get access to Adobe software from off campus, or do I need to use a campus computer?
Answer
If you are a current UT Southwestern (UTSW) faculty or staff member, or a student, you are eligible for a license for the Adobe Creative Cloud through IR at a reduced annual cost of $250 per user license. All licenses expire at the start (September 1st) of each fiscal year and must be renewed for continued use. New purchase license cost will not become prorated.
To purchase an Adobe Creative Cloud Suite user license through IR, submit a request to the UTSW Service Desk by email. Include the following information for the person who will own the user license:
Full Name
