are you behind a firewall or anything that might prevent it from connecting to the internet?

Do you really need the app? Autodesk updates are not released daily or weekly, or even monthly depending on how stable your software of choice is.

Do your high school students a favor and teach them software they will actually use in College: REVIT (architecture), Inventor (manufacturing), Fusion 360 (manufacturing) are better choices.

Most modern colleges no longer attach value to students only using AutoCAD, and most employers pay top dollar for users of thee other software, but not for AutoCAD.

All Autodesk software is free to all accredited high schools and colleges. Even in Canada 🙂
