Overview
To be licensed for Adobe applications, University of Idaho faculty and staff must opt-in using this form: https://forms.office.com/r/zz6RnpxxPm Faculty and Staff can choose different software applications based on their need. If you want simple media editing, select Adobe Express which will allow you to select an add-on Adobe Acrobat license.
Students can only request access to Adobe Express through a separate licensing form here: https://forms.office.com/r/zDiDzGL986. If a student is enrolled in a course that requires Adobe Creative Cloud applications, they will be granted access at the start of the semester. More information can be found here: Article - University Provided Adobe S...
Please Note:
After being added to a license group it will take 40 to 60 minutes to provision your access in Adobe.

Within a few minutes you will also receive an email notice about joining the appropriate Adobe licensing group(s). You will need to wait 40-60 minutes before access to the software becomes available.
Once you have been added to the group, and waited for the 40 minute provisioning delay, you will be able to install Adobe Creative Cloud desktop applications following these instructions.
