Free student license

  • Students can get a free license for ArcGIS Pro to install on a personal computer.

  • The student license remains in effect until you graduate–no need to renew it each year like in the past.

  • You can use the license on up to three personal computers.

  • Use your NetID credentials to sign in to ArcGIS Pro once it's installed. You can also sign in to ArcGIS Online.

  • When installing ArcGIS Pro on your computer, it may complain that Microsoft .NET 6 x64 is missing. Here is a direct link to the .NET installation file. After you install .NET, try to install ArcGIS Pro again.

Tips

    • Use Autodesk 3d Map, which is also installed on the lab computers. You can also install the software on your personal computer by obtaining it from the Autodesk Education site.
