Thereafter you can renew your license free of charge for as long as you are a student or postdoc by emailing us to confirm your student status.
Student (Semester): Any student enrolled in a course that uses Raven Pro is eligible to purchase a limited-time semester license for $50. Semester licenses expire at the end of each semester (January 31 for the fall semester, and June 30 for the spring semester), at which time Raven will run in demo mode. Fees for semester licenses are not applicable to any other Raven licenses that may be purchased later. Semester licenses provide a way that students can install Raven on their personal computers to use for the duration of a course.
Instructional: Available to instructors at academic institutions. The basic instructional license fee of $400 provides for installation and concurrent use on up to four (4) instructional machines. An instructional machine is one owned by the licensing institution on which Raven Pro will be used exclusively for coursework. This may include lab, classroom, or field work. Personal machines and machines on which Raven Pro is not used exclusively for coursework are specifically excluded. Additional instructional licenses can be purchased for $100 per machine. Note that $400 is the minimum price for this type of license -- you cannot just pay $200 to install on two machines.
