SPSS Site License

K-State has a SPSS site-license program for MS Windows software. The fee is $120 per year, which licenses SPSS for a single computer. SPSS cannot be purchased for a one-time fee.

Departments, faculty, staff, and students can purchase SPSS through this license. However, the payment to Computing and Network Services (CNS) must be through an Interdepartmental Requisition (IDR). Individuals can reimburse the department issuing the IDR.
