ANSYS offers a student version of their software for only $25/year. It is available on the ANSYS Student Portal. The functionalities are the same as in the full version except that it is node restricted to 32,000 (more than enough for what a typical student will need). Please ask Sebastien at sfl32@cornell.edu for information on how to get the ANSYS Student Version.Note: This is release 15.0 which is a newer release than the ones installed in the Cornell computer labs (14.5). Just be aware that a project created in 15.0 will not open in 14.5 while a project created in 14.5 can be opened in 15.0

Note
titleFirewall notifications

On your first few uses of ANSYS, Firewall notifications should pop up. Make sure to allow all ANSYS programs to run normally (i.e do not let the Firewall block ANSYS programs). You can verify the allowed program list by going into Start>Control Panel>System & Security>Allow a program through Windows Firewall.

Cornell University faculty can get the full version of ANSYS for FREE by following this installation tutorial
