Students enrolled in a higher education institution can subscribe to SketchUp Studio for Higher Education. This subscription includes premium 3D modelers, building analysis software, cloud storage, and more.

This student subscription can be purchased through one of our educational resellers. If you are a student in the U.S. or Canada, your educational reseller is Creation Engine, Inc. If you are a student outside the U.S. and Canada, look up your regional reseller.

Does SketchUp offer discounts to teachers or educators?

If your school uses either Google Workspace for Education Fundamentals or Microsoft Education, you can also use SketchUp for Schools for free. Just ask your school’s administrator to install the app.

Do I have to be teaching SketchUp to qualify for the free Educator License?

Absolutely not. Any educator who is teaching any subject, computer-related or not, qualifies. We're interested to see what you'll do with it. Think it might be of benefit to your Spanish class? History? Physics? We think so, too. Send us a request and let us know how things went.

What do I need to do to get a new (or renew) my educator's license?

To order a new (or to renew) your SketchUp Pro educator subscription, contact your local reseller who will fulfill your request.

In order to complete the request, they will require proof of academic verification.
