ChristusG Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 I know that most software can be purchased at a significant discount for teachers and students. Can homeschoolers get this discount? If so, what would I use to show for i? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandellie4 Posted September 29, 2010 Share Posted September 29, 2010 Hopefully, someone else will chime in, too, but I've purchased at a teacher's discount from academicsuperstore. For my first order, I had to fax them a copy of a letter from the county of our intent to homeschool being accepted. I had a choice of doing that or sending in a copy of my umbrella organization's ID card. Sandy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TechWife Posted September 29, 2010 Share Posted September 29, 2010 It all depends on the company you want to purchase from - they all have their own policies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cera Posted September 29, 2010 Share Posted September 29, 2010 We generally order from journeyed.com. Some software companies won't allow homeschool discounts but many will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColoradoMom Posted September 29, 2010 Share Posted September 29, 2010 (edited) Yes - we buy everything from Academic Superstore with zero problems. Just order what you want - and they tell you if it is OK for students/parents - and then you fax them your homeschool proof. I fax my HSLDA card and you are good for a year to order whatever you want. We have purchased InDesign, Corel Draw, Corel Painter, Toon Boom, and will soon be ordering a drawing tablet and Windows 7 for Christmas. I will be very bummed when he graduates because I will have to pay full price for stuff again! (And yes - every single bit of it is used for homeschooling.)

anneofalamo Posted September 29, 2010 Share Posted September 29, 2010 we did just buy adobe CS5 for $198 versus $1988...with an ID of my son from our umbrella charter homeschool. He is doing photography and learning scrapping from me...just a blast for a teen ager to take pics of his brother and sister and photoshop them in other places or bodies!! There are a lot of programs on there, but that was a doozy for us!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
