Special pricing for Students and Faculty Members at Educational Institutions

If you are a Faculty Member or a Student enrolled full-time at a qualified education institution, you can purchase MODO at a special price as an alternate to purchasing a regular, Individual MODO License. Choose between a Permanent Education License and an Annual Education License that includes all MODO upgrades during the year. Both forms of Education Licenses are available at a significant discount, and are available to students and Faculty members who have confirmed their education status with Luxology.

“As an artist and educator, MODO is one of the best programs to use. On the artistic side I find the program is easily customizable to my preferences and workflow. On the education side I feel the overall design and layout allows me to quickly and easily teach my students how use the program like a professional.”

What are the differences between a regular MODO Individual License and the MODO Education Licenses?

The feature sets are identical. MODO Education Licenses are for active students and faculty and are provided at a substantial discount in order to promote learning by the academic community. MODO Education Licenses are provided in two forms: 1) a Permanent License and 2) an Annual License that is kept current with all MODO upgrades during the course of the year.

When I buy a MODO Education License, will I be entitled to MODO updates?

If you want your school or institutional facility to always have the most current version of MODO, we recommend you get the MODO Annual Education License, which includes all updates to MODO that may occur during the year – at no additional charge.

Can I renew a MODO Annual Education License after it expires after one year?

Yes. MODO Annual Education Licenses are renewable one-year Licenses, so you can renew them annually, as long as you still otherwise qualify.

I am graduating from school or leaving my faculty employment and I would like to get a MODO Individual License. What should I do?

After two years, any student or faculty member with an active MODO Education License can upgrade to a MODO Individual License for the then current upgrade price (currently $495).

Can I buy a site license of MODO for conducting training classes? What about purchasing multiple MODO licenses for computer training labs?

Yes, we offer several licensing options on our MODO Education Training Lab License page.
