UNC System-wide Software Agreements
Some license agreements are negotiated by UNC General Administration (GA) to provide discounted pricing or otherwise beneficial terms for all the campuses in the UNC system. In some cases, these agreements require the system campuses to enter into individual enrollments. Pricing and terms are generally set by GA.
