You will be asked for your School License ID, SDK-ID, or SEK-ID.

If you purchased a SOLIDWORKS textbook (like Engineering Design with SOLIDWORKS ), check the inside front or back cover. Many textbooks come with a DVD or a coupon code that allows you to register for a student serial number online.

You cannot find a valid "9020" serial number via a general search, as they are unique to your school. To get yours:

: 9020 serial numbers are version-specific . For example, a serial number for the 2024 version will not work for the 2025 version, though they are usually backward compatible (a 2024 license can often install 2023).

: Primarily used for standalone installations on home computers, allowing students to work without being connected to a school's network license server.

Educational network licenses (used for computer labs).
