Frequently asked Questions

What is an academic enterprise subscription?

An academic enterprise subscription provides unlimited digital access to The Washington Post for your campus community — students, faculty and staff. It includes dedicated support from our Education Team and resources designed specifically for higher education and K-12 institutions.

Can I purchase a subscription for just my department, program or school?

Absolutely. Academic subscriptions are flexible — you don't need a campus-wide subscription. Many schools start with a single department or program and expand as they see value and usage.

What kind of support do academic institutions receive?

You'll work directly with The Post's Education Team, who specialize in supporting academic subscribers. This includes:

  • Dedicated account management and technical support
  • A Promotion Toolkit with ready-to-use marketing materials (emails, graphics, flyers) to promote access across your campus
  • Usage reports and engagement insights

What is the cost?

Pricing is based on your institution size and the number of users who need access.

Why should our school include The Washington Post in our resources?

The Post gives your students, faculty and staff a front-row seat to where national decisions are made. Our newsroom is embedded in the capital, covering federal policy, Supreme Court decisions, Congressional action and the forces shaping America in real time. Students across disciplines gain context they can't get anywhere else. Our Education Team also provides promotional resources and usage reporting to help you track and increase engagement across your campus.

How quickly can our school get access?

Most accounts are activated within 3 business days after subscribing. Your Education Team contact will coordinate with you to ensure smooth implementation and help you launch access to your community.

What happens after I submit the form?

Our Education Team will reach out via email within 2 business days to learn about your institution's needs and provide a customized proposal. There's no obligation, we're here to answer questions and find the right solution for your campus or school.

Is there a minimum number of users required?

Yes, minimums vary by institution type and size. Our team will work with you to create a subscription that fits your budget and community needs.

How do students, faculty and staff access their subscriptions?

Access is designed to be seamless. We offer multiple authentication methods to fit your institution's infrastructure.

Our Education Team will work with your IT and library staff to implement the authentication method that works best for your community.
