staff, adjuncts, etc. The offer below is available only to currently enrolled students.
Employees are not eligible to purchase a subscription through this program.
Students with a Previously Purchased Subscription: If you have an active subscription to the Adobe Creative Cloud that was purchased directly from Adobe, our agreement with Adobe allows you to opt
out of that agreement immediately and without penalty once you purchase a subscription through our offer. Subscriptions purchased directly from Adobe have a 12-month obligation before you
can cancel your subscription; our agreement covers this situation as well, and you
can opt out even if you have months remaining on that obligation.
To opt out of your previously purchased subscription, you must contact Adobe directly within 14 days of buying a UNT discounted subscription and provide them with a copy
of your receipt.
Note: If you are paying a monthly subscription fee to Adobe, then you are not using a subscription purchased through the University of North Texas offer. If you
have questions or are experiencing issues with your subscription, please contact Adobe.

subscription as part of their employment. Part-time employees who require Adobe Creative
Cloud for their job duties should contact their department for access information.
