SQL Server 2012 CAL – Price Increase
Effective with the launch of SQL Server 2012 (April 1, 2012), the price for a SQL Server Client Access License (CAL) was increased by approximately 27.4%. Current academic pricing policies limit price list increases to less than 10% per year, so the pricing change is being rolled out over multiple years.
13
The increase effective April 1, 2013 reflects this ongoing rollout and impacts the Campus and School and OVS-ES programs only.

Point Count Changes
Changes to Point Counts cannot be tied to a particular price list month. Point counts flow to downstream systems as soon as they are either set, or changed. While this precludes the ability to provide a 30-day preview on point count changes, it does mean that point count errors can be corrected quickly without relying on the following month’s price list publication schedule.
As point count changes will not be visible on the preview price list, please refer to the Product List for updated point counts in the interim.
License point values (referred to as the “Unit Count” on price lists) are assigned based on a product’s global base price using a sliding scale and are only applicable in the Open and Select program. Each product pool (Applications, Systems, Server) has a unique scale for assigning point counts.
