One-time purchase of Adobe programs/applications

[adamo72879563]

Hi, I was wondering if anyone knew if Adobe or any retailers offered a one-time purchase option for Adobe programs/applications at a discounted price for college students?

As far as I know, Adobe sells 3 programs that use a serial number and one payment

Photoshop/Premiere Elements Easy Photo & Video Editing Software | Adobe Elements Family

Lightroom 6 Download and install Lightroom 6 (Single App license)

Everything else is by subscription Cloud Plans https://creative.adobe.com/plans

There is a special rate for students

When you buy an Education subscription, the terms you "click to agree" should be clear about the first/later years

Thanks for the info John, but I have a follow-up question to your answer. Does Adobe offer a lifetime subscription? Thanks again for answering my question.

I have never heard of a lifetime subscription... certainly not at the introductory education rate, since the cost goes up after the first year
