Talk to your CAD administrator about the possibility of getting a temporary license from your network. This requires you to have access to your school network on your personal computer during the installation process.
Once SolidWorks is installed using a network serial number, the computer must be connected to the network while the Solidworks application is in use, however, the license can be "borrowed" for up to 30 days.
The easy-to-use SolidWorks Student Edition lets you hone your skills outside the classroom as you learn to design great products. Go here to fill out the student admission form and get your serial number and download access. To get Solidworks student version free 1-year education license follow the below steps.
