Deals: Adobe's Back To School Sale Offers 63% Off Creative Cloud All Apps for Students and Teachers

Adobe has launched its back to school promotion this week, offering the Creative Cloud All Apps subscription for 63 percent off for the first year, plus your first month free for students and teachers who prepay for the full year. With this sale, you'll pay $19.99/month for the first year, down from $54.99/month for the full-priced plan.

You can also choose to pay for the entire year upfront at the price of $219.00/year. After your first year ends, your subscription will automatically renew at the standard rate of $359.88/year unless you change or cancel the subscription. This sale ends September 5 and is only available to first time subscribers and eligible education customers.

When signing up for Creative Cloud All Apps, you gain access to more than 20 creative apps, including Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere Pro, After Effects, InDesign, and Acrobat. You also get templates, cloud storage, and thousands of Adobe Fonts.

These programs can be subscribed to individually as well for a monthly fee, but the new offer is only for Adobe Creative Cloud All Apps. Adobe is not discounting individual services. Our full Deals Roundup has more information on the latest Apple-related sales and bargains.

Well, it's good that Affinity exists. I said goodbye to Photoshop and Adobe's pricing model a long time ago.

I'm aware that people who are used to working with Photoshop cannot or do not want to work in any other way. This is quite similar with PC users.

Everyone has their toys, but Adobe has an unusually lousy pricing policy that translates into fewer new customers, so now we watch their desperate attempt to retain young people. A chocolate in addition might work. For the very young and inexperienced. Good luck

Adobe's pricing model is completely insane. I hope they fail as a company.

Wow. That only makes it 2x a reasonable price
I mean, Adobe was never reasonably priced.

The subscription nonsense just took it from "highway robbery" to "highway robbery and we shoot you in the back anyway".

Good discount for those wanting to use Adobe. But I prefer Affinity Photo. Also don't like the subscription model from Adobe.

They really should take a leaf out of the book of 3D modelling software companies. Offer a free tier for students.
Once you've got them hooked in then… well then the gloves come off.

I also jumped ship and never looked back when they switched to subscription only, but…

It’s working great for them, so I don’t know about the desperation part.
