SAS 9.4 Installation for Windows
SAS is a statistical package with analytical solutions ranging from simple statistics to advanced data mining solutions. The university has a site license for SAS that allows it to be installed on any university-owned computers when used for teaching or non-commercial purposes. In addition, student, faculty and staff home use on personal equipment is included at no additional cost. SAS installations on university-owned computers for any other purpose, including administrative use require separate licenses to be purchased.
If you are having an issue installing SAS or activating the license, please open a Service Request so that we can assist you. Please only use Feedback when there is an issue with the KB (knowledge base) article.
