SAS Agreement Renewal

We are pleased to announce the “SAS- Renewals Only” agreement has renewed for a further year, to 31 July 2026. 

Institutions renewing SAS without changes are eligible for legacy pricing with a small increase. To renew your current SAS licence, as-is, please place your order via SAS - Renewals Only 

Current SAS licences have a 15-day grace period applied, which ends 15 August 2025. If you do not renew your licence, SAS will no longer be accessible after this date.

For institutions not licensed during the 2024/25 licence year, or those wishing to renew but not on a like-for-like basis, orders will need to be placed under a separate “SAS- New Orders Only” agreement. Please note that due to current circumstances at SAS, this new agreement is not yet confirmed. We will notify you as soon as it becomes available.  

New or amended licences will be subject to SAS’s updated global education pricing model, which differs significantly from legacy pricing. We recommend carefully evaluating whether changes to your current licence are necessary. If you wish to make changes to your existing SAS licence, please contact help@chest.ac.uk and we will refer your query to SAS.
