Symantec Academic Program is for qualified academic institutions and charities that need
to purchase license quantities without signed contracts or financial commitments.
The Academic Program simplifies buying license quantities for use in the country of purchase. Academic buyers are freed from formal contracts and commitments, and are eligible to receive discounts for purchases that grow with the size of each order. Managing your discount eligibility can help you meet the budget challenges of education and charity work.

Other Qualified Institutions can include healthcare entities with a major teaching component or libraries owned and operated by a qualified Academic Institution. Qualified Charitable organizations are also eligible under the Academic Licensing Program. Contact your Symantec sales representative or reseller for country-specific information about eligibility.
