Resolution

Final Cut Pro

Faculty and staff can obtain a license for Final Cut Pro for academic purposes for macOS. 

Students can obtain a license for Final Cut Pro for 1 academic semester at a time. If needed longer, additional requests must be made. 

To request access to use Final Cut Pro, visit the Service titled "Request Application or Software" or see the link under the "Related Services" section on this page.

Adobe Premier

All faculty, staff, and students should have access to Adobe Premier as part of the College's Adobe License. Please download, install, and sign with the Adobe Creative Cloud app. Once signed in, the option to install Adobe Premier will become available.
