University of Delaware students, faculty, and staff can download software licensed for their use from UDeploy.

SAS Education Analytical Suite with Enterprise Miner for Faculty/Staff – Downloads

Overview

  • The University of Delaware licenses SAS for teaching and research purposes only. It may not be used for administrative needs of the University. It is a fairly complete version of SAS and includes unlimited access to SAS Institute's online training courses.
  • Requests to purchase annual licenses will be processed through the Request for Services - IT Software Licenses web form.  IT staff will then send you licensing and download information.
  • Licenses run July 1st through June 30th and the cost per license is the same throughout the year, regardless of when purchased. This means that no partial-year credit or pro-rating of the fee is available.
  • The version of SAS downloadable here is 9.4 TS1M7 (2023-24).

Eligibility
