Is there a way to import data to SAS unviersity that is larger than 10mb?

It's "funny"...
Now I've searched for awhile about this limitation but can't find any official docs about it. At least not at any "front page".
But if there is a limitation (I'm there is, and it seems logical) I can hardly see you could bypass it. And if you could, you shouldn't. The sw is for free for learning purposes. So if you have a need for larger data, chances are you are a potential paying customer.
What is your requirement?

What do you mean ? You mean WORK library can't hold this big table ?

Use

options user='/folders/myfolders/' ;

switch your WORK into a Share fold, So as long as your disk is big enough to hold .

There is a 10MB limit on AWS and SAS Academics On Demand. This is because you use someone else's services for running SAS in the cloud. If you use SAS UE on your computer there's no such limitation.

Why not make a TXT file to hold these data and use data step to import it .
