TCU Adobe Site License
We are excited to announce that Information Technology has purchased a site license for Adobe Creative Suite. You will now be able to install this software on any campus-owned machine (provided it meets the system requirements). Employees can also install the software at home on a personally-owned computer to use for employment-related purposes .
It is important to note that this software is not designed for the novice user. Support and training sessions for these applications will be limited. Adobe has provided a series of robust training videos and online forums that will help to provide you with the assistance that you need. This is a fantastic step forward for the campus community and we are proud to provide you with another amazing tool that can be used to enhance the TCU experience.

Getting Adobe in a Lab
We will install the latest version of Adobe CC on lab machines but only if it is requested. Shortly after this message is sent out, the lab liaisons will receive an email from our Lab Systems group with information on how to make this request. Please, touch base with your department liaison if this is something that you are interested in.
Work-at-Home Licenses for Personally-Owned Machines
Adobe Work-At-Home products are available only for current TCU faculty and staff to use on personally owned devices. These license keys expire every year on October 1st, regardless of the installation date and a new license must be requested every September. This software must be used solely for employment related purposes and technical assistance from TCU will be limited since personal machines are not owned or managed by the university. Please, visit our Adobe Work-at-Home webpage for information on where to start.
