UNTHSC now participates in the Apple Volume Purchase Program!

What is the Apple Volume Purchase Program (VPP)?

The Volume Purchase Program makes it easy for educational institutions to purchase iOS apps in volume (tax exempt) and distribute those apps to users. The Volume Purchase Program also allows app developers to offer special pricing for purchases of 20 apps or more.

I need to purchase tax exempt apps for my state owned iDevice.  What do I do?

Simply email softwarerequest@unthsc.edu with the following information:

  • Name of the App
  • Quantity
  • Who will be using the App
  • Inventory Number of your iDevice (if applicable)
  • Account Number/DeptID that will be used to pay for the app(s)

We will get back with you with a quote, and once you okay it, we will purchase the apps for you.  Once purchased, we will email you special codes for each app to redeem in the app store.  Click here for redemption instructions.  It’s that easy!
