                       Accessing academic programs through one account

                       If you already have a CAS Academic Program account, or if you are establishing
                       one, and you are requesting an STN Karlsruhe RESEARCH account, the programs
                       can be combined on one account.
                           Combine my RESEARCH and CAS Academic Program accounts.
                           My CAS Academic Program account number (if known) is: ______________________

                       An STN Karlsruhe EDUCATION account cannot be combined with a CAS Academic Program
                       account due to different time restrictions.
