## Alternative Ways to Access Astah Without an Academic Email
To apply for the [**Astah UML Free Student License**](https://astah.net/products/free-student-license/), you must have an **academic email address provided by your school**. Unfortunately, we cannot issue free licenses without this verification.
If you don’t have an academic email address, you still have the following options to use Astah:
1. **Purchase an Academic Discounted License**
[*Astah Professional for $48 / €36*](https://sites.fastspring.com/astah/product/prof-academic)
2. **Subscribe to Astah UML on a Monthly Basis**
[*Astah UML Monthly Subscription for $6.99 / €5.99*](https://sites.fastspring.com/astah/product/uml-one-month-auto-renewal-selection)
3. **Ask Your Instructor About a Campus-Wide License**
*Your teacher or school administrator can purchase [a campus-wide license](https://astah.net/products/faculty-site-license/) for you and your classmates.*
If you need help choosing the right option, feel free to [contact us](https://astah.net/about/contact/).
