Autodesk education support

Eligible students and educators are those who are enrolled at, employed by, or contractors of a qualified educational institution, which is one that has been accredited by an authorized governmental agency for the primary purpose of teaching enrolled students. This includes accredited middle schools, high schools, higher education institutions, and homeschools. Lab and IT administrators of qualified educational institutions can also gain access to benefits and free multi-user access.

For more information, see Who is eligible for the Education plan?

Autodesk software and services accessed through the Education plan contain the same features and functionality available through paid subscription.

Most Autodesk titles are available through the Education plan, including older versions and web services like A360 Rendering and Fusion 360. Access includes the current version plus up to three prior versions (where available). For a list of software and services, visit the Get Products page.

You will not be able to access software under the Education plan until your eligibility is confirmed. Be sure to start the process of confirming your eligibility early enough to make sure you have access when class starts.

• If your school is not already listed as a qualified educational institution, it typically takes up to seven days to validate it.
• If you have to upload documentation, it typically takes up to two days to confirm your eligibility.
