Which SOLIDWORKS routes cost nothing and which need a paid seat: the free student offer, trials, makerspace and startup programs, the free viewer, and what a student license leaves out. I'd ask your school about home access before paying for anything.

SOLIDWORKS for students: free Standard, Premium and school access
Ask the school about home access first. Then choose the free desktop Standard offer, paid Premium or a separate browser CAD product by the files and tools your course requires.
