How do I get Adobe CC?

Current SDSU students are eligible to use Adobe Creative Cloud applications with a valid SDSUid. Sign in to https://creative.adobe.com/products/download/creative-cloud with your SDSUid and password to license your account. Make sure you use your SDSUid email address and hit continue to log in, do not log in using the "Continue with Google, Facebook or Apple" options, they will not work. If prompted, choose the work or school account. If you are already signed in to an Adobe CC product, you will need to sign out and sign back in with your SDSUid and password to provision the new license.

Adobe Licensing Issues

If you are currently using a personal account for Adobe CC, you must sign out of all personal Adobe CC apps then sign back in with your SDSUid and password for the SDSU student license to take effect. If you are prompted to use a personal or work account, use the work account. This should fix any licensing issues you might be having. The issues usually occur because you are logging into a personal account rather than an enterprise account.

If you purchase Adobe CC directly from Adobe you will have to cancel your subscription to get a refund; you have 14 days to do this from the original purchase date.
