MATLAB: Updating to the Campus License

Overview

Every year, users will need to re-activate their existing MATLAB installation and users not on the campus license should update to that. This page has instructions for both.

Reactivation Instructions

1. Users will see an expiration message starting 15 days from the expiration date.

2. Users can activate then, or let MATLAB expire.

   1. To activate before expiration, launch MATLAB and find the Help button. Then Licensing > Activate Software.

   2. Once MATLAB expires and they try to launch MATLAB again, it will automatically launch the activation client.

Transitioning to the Campus License

1. Re-run the MATLAB installer.

2. When running the installer, select the Campus-Wide license and install the new toolboxes that are now available.

3. After the install, it will automatically open the activation client and place the Campus-Wide license file.
