Hello,

I took two semesters of AI at SFCC in Sedalia Missouri.  I had a copy of AI for my class, and it is now expired. Current version that I have is 2008.  I was told that there is a free option for veterans which I am.  20 years in the USAF.  Any help you can provide is greatly appreciated!

Welcome to the community @JetMech2002 and thank you for your service. 

I believe that this is tied to the legacy Autodesk Assistance program which offered free licenses to unemployed individuals as well as veterans, and mirrored / eventually merged into the Autodesk Education Community.

With that being said, I regret to inform you that this program is no longer available as the requirements for the Autodesk Education Community are listed below.
