[Athen] Remote access with JAWS

[Lester, Patti]

Dear Colleagues,

I understand that if one is a JAWS user and wants to connect to a Citrix based or terminal virtual lab, a remote authorization license must be purchased in addition to the cost of the JAWS license on the system attempting to connect with the Server hosting the virtual lab. One of the nice things about being able to access a virtual desktop is accessing software applications that you couldn't afford to purchase for your own system, but if your system needs a JAWS license add on for remote access that cost, it defeats the whole purpose.
Is there any institution out there offering a Citrix based virtual lab that they make available to all students and if so, how does this institution manage that scenario without forwarding the cost to students?
