Eligibility & FAQ
Am I eligible for Mathematica Student Edition?
Mathematica Student Edition is available to part-time or full-time primary and secondary students and students working toward an associate's, bachelor's, master's, doctoral or equivalent degree at an accredited educational institution or approved homeschool location. It is also available to part-time, non-degree-seeking students if required for a class. Mathematica Student Edition may only be installed on the student's own personal computer, and registered to the student.
Proof of enrollment is required.
I am not a student. Can I buy a Student Edition license for a student?
Yes. A single Mathematica Student Edition license can be gifted to a student by an individual (friend/family). At the time of purchase, they must provide the name and email address of the student owner, and provide valid proof of student status for that student. The license will be registered to the student, and installed on their personal machine. All communication will be sent directly to the student, who owns the rights to the license. Since you are not the student, you do not own this license and cannot be the registered user. It cannot be gifted by an organization, except with prior written approval from Wolfram Research.
How do I prove my student status?
You can verify your student status using any of the following methods:
- Provide a URL from your institution's public webpage or web directory that proves your student status
- Attach or send a copy of your dated student ID, registration receipt, class schedule, school bill or state-issued homeschool program registration by email, mail or fax
You'll be able to submit your proof of student status when you purchase your product, or send the information later. You will be given temporary access to Mathematica until your student status has been verified. Once your status is verified, your access will be extended.
For questions about student status, or to submit hard copies of student verification materials, contact us.
Can I install my license on multiple machines?
Each single-machine Mathematica license may only be installed on a single machine. However, adding a service plan to your license provides you with a second personal-use license to install on another personally owned machine or dual boot system, which you can use for as long as your service plan is active.
Mathematica | Online is a single-user license, and doesn't require a local installation—so you can sign in from anywhere and on any internet-enabled computer or mobile device through a web browser or the Wolfram Cloud app. The software licensing restricts you from accessing the product from more than one machine at a time. If you want to access Mathematica | Online from multiple machines simultaneously, please purchase multiple subscriptions.
How is Mathematica Student Edition different from the professional version of Mathematica?
Mathematica Student Edition includes all of the functionality found in the professional version. Below is a list of minor differences:
- Wolfram Notebooks created within Mathematica Student Edition include a "Mathematica Student Edition" banner
- Mathematica Student Edition is only authorized for use by students on personally owned computers for nonprofessional purposes
- Mathematica Student Edition only utilizes up to four cores on a multicore machine; professional licenses utilize up to eight cores
How long can I use Mathematica Student Edition?
The length of license you purchase dictates how long it can be used. With this restriction, you can continue using Mathematica Student Edition on your personal computer for as long as you are a student and still considered eligible.
Can I continue using Mathematica Student Edition after I graduate?
You'll have the option to convert to the latest professional version to continue using Mathematica after graduation. In fact, we offer a significant discount to students transitioning from personal to professional use. Contact us for details.
I am a faculty member. Can I use Mathematica Student Edition for teaching or academic research?
No, but significant discounts are available for educational licenses.
What are the benefits of my service plan?
Our service plans are the most economical way to keep your licenses up to date and fully supported—offering benefits like product upgrades, priority support and access on a second personal computer.
Key benefits include:
- Saving money over buying individual upgrades with instant access to the latest product releases and enhancements
- Flexibility to install your license on a second personal computer or dual boot machine
- Extending your access online and on mobile devices through Mathematica | Online (with select plans)
For a complete list of benefits included with each service plan, visit the Service Plans page.
How long do my service benefits last?
Service benefits remain active for one year. To keep access to your benefits, service must be renewed each year.
For the cost to renew your service plan, visit the Wolfram Store.
