Adobe Creative Cloud Account Request - Faculty/Staff

Question

How do I request Adobe Access as a faculty, staff or student worker?

Overview

Adobe Creative Cloud Suite licenses are available on request to all faculty, staff, graduate assistants, and teaching assistants. The full list of applications available through Adobe CC can be found here. There is also an Adobe Flowchart attached to this document. To request an Adobe license:

1. Contact the IT Solutions Center at 507-389-6654, ITSolutionsCenter@mnsu.edu, or by visiting the CSU IT Solutions Center in person with your request

                         NOTE: Only supervisors of student workers can submit a request on behalf of their student worker

2. You will receive an email from Adobe once your request has been processed
3. Once you receive the email from Adobe, click on the Get Started link provided in the email.
4. The link will take you to Adobe’s website and prompt you to create an Adobe account. Create a secure and memorable password. This password will be different from your StarID password

NOTE: If you had an existing license, you would need to log out of all Adobe Products and then sign back in with your firstname.lastname@mnsu.edu email and select Company or School Account

5. Download the Adobe Creative Cloud (CC) application
