Adobe offers students and schools free temporary access to Creative Cloud

With schools being forced to closed down in many parts of the world because of COVID-19 concerns, we're looking for ways that won't further disrupt students' studies. Adobe is hoping to help those studying from home by offering free temporary remote access to Creative Cloud. But there are a few conditions that need to be met. 

School IT administrators will need to fill out this application form to request a remote Creative Cloud license. The school will also need to be an existing education customer. The permit will be valid until May 2020. Adobe will verify each request, but if your school is an existing customer, then your institution will qualify for the offer.
