Student Adobe Creative Cloud License Activation

Student Adobe Creative Cloud License Activation

The University has made some recent changes to provisioning Adobe Creative Cloud licensing for schools that provide it such as Newhouse.  

Please go to the following link (My Access) to look for the "Adobe Creative Cloud Suite Student Named License" and choose the "Request" link on the far right:  My Access  

You should receive an email confirming you will received access which then allows you to authenticate using your SU email address after you sign out of Adobe and sign back in.

When you are signing in, ensure you select:
Company or School account.

It can take up anywhere between 1 hour to half a day for the licensing to be applied to your account.  

Let us know if this resolves your issue and restores your Adobe licensing.  

 

Access is good for 120 days so you will need to do this again after every semester including summer until graduation. 

 

Troubleshooting:

You may also need to clear your browser cache and logout of Adobe Creative Cloud and sign back in.

Especially if you have signed in accidently with your Netid@g.syr.edu (Should be Netid@syr.edu)
