CUNY Site Licenses | Procedure for Home Use of Software

All site-licensed software is for on-campus use by faculty, staff and registered students.

Home use of software is made in accordance with the license agreement and is only applicable for Adobe CLP, Mathematica, and SAS with some restrictions.

ADOBE CLP - The same home use rights that are part of the Adobe End-User License Agreement for Education (included with each software product) apply.

You, as the primary user of the computer on which the Software is installed, may also install the Software on one of your home computers. However, the Software may not be used on your home computer at the same time the Software on the primary computer is used…"

A form MUST be completed BEFORE software is duplicated for home use. The required form is available on the Web (see downloadable form selections under the CUNY Site Licenses) or from the Campus PC Site License Coordinator. Campus Site License Coordinators will maintain ALL FORMS.

MATHEMATICA - Specific procedures have been established for faculty-owned computers, and student-owned computers. These procedures must be adhered to.

Obtaining a Copy of Mathematica
Students -

  1. Read and agree to the terms of the Mathematica Site License. Print out the license agreement and sign it. This must be given to your Campus Site License Coordinator when you request a CD and a license number.
  2. See your Campus Site License Coordinator for a CD and a license number
  3. Obtain a Password: In order to install Mathematica on your computer, you will need to obtain a password. You will need to provide the following information to Wolfram when you request a password:

    License Number - the license number for your specific college provided by your PC Site License Coordinator
    Identification - name, email address, phone number, college (i.e.: CUNY Hunter College)
    MathID number and Machine Name - the MathID number will be automatically generated when you launch the Mathematica installer. This number is required in order to generate a password that will be unique to your computer. The machine name is your name (i.e.: Jane).

    Request the Password - complete and submit the Mathematica Password Request at http://register.wolfram.com/. This form must be fully completed for your password to be properly processed. If you omit information from this form, you will not be able to receive your password.

    Receiving your password - you will receive your password from your Campus Site License Coordinator via email. This password will allow you to fully install and run Mathematica on the computer for which it was requested. If Mathematica is installed on many computers (i.e.: home computer and laptop), each computer will need its own MathID and password. The password will expire each year on June 30th. You will automatically have a grace period of 14 days to allow time to receive your password.

Faculty -

Fill out the following home-use request form: http://www.wolfram.com/solutions/highered/homeuse.cgi.

Within this form, you have the choice of being sent a CD or downloading the software to your home computer. Each home-use license will ave its own unique license number. Once the installation has begun, the faculty member will then need to go to the web (http://register.wolfram.com) to register the software license and request a password. Wolfram will email the password directly to the faculty member, using the email address that was provided when registering the software. The password will expire each year on August 31st. Upgrades are free and each faculty member needs to request a copy from Wolfram directly. No shipping charges will be incurred.

SAS - is licensed for home use by CUNY faculty, staff, and registered students. A form MUST be completed BEFORE software is duplicated for home use. The required form is available on the Web (see downloadable form selections under the CUNY Site Licenses) or from the Campus PC Site License Coordinator. Campus Site License Coordinators will maintain ALL FORMS.

SAS is very concerned about software piracy. SAS Software is passcode protected. Appropriate information is available annually from your Campus PC Site License Coordinator.

When requesting software from your campus PC Site License Coordinator, remember to specify the product, the product version, and the platform that you desire.
