Kids can use on home computers when they sign in, Adobe said.

It requires schools to purchase at least 500 licenses or school districts to purchase at least or 2,500 licenses, said Sharif Karmally, senior marketing manager for Adobe's Creative Cloud for Education program, in a blog post.Ĭreative Cloud titles also include Lightroom for photography, Illustrator for vector graphics, Audition for audio editing, Dreamweaver and Muse for website creation, XD for design, and more than a dozen other programs. The new pricing isn't available for individual students. That's a radical discount compared with the regular $600 annual price for the software, or the individual student pricing of $240 per year - a cost that jumps to $360 after the first year.

You may think of Photoshop, Premiere Pro and After Effects as expensive professional tools for photographers and video editors, but Adobe Systems wants them to be what your kid sees when flipping open the laptop lid at school.Īdobe will offer K-12 schools its full suite of Creative Cloud software for $5 per student per year, starting May 15, it said Thursday.
