You can't download University Edition. It has been replaced by SAS OnDemand for Academics. https://www.sas.com/en_us/software/on-demand-for-academics.html

Yes. SAS On Demand for Academics is the learning platform for SAS programming. All you need is a PC (Linux, Mac or Windows) and a browser (Chrome preferred).

There are two user interfaces available with SODA. One is SAS Studio, which runs entirely in an internet browser as mentioned by @Kurt_Bremser . The other is SAS Enterprise Guide which must be downloaded and installed on a Windows computer. Back-end processing is entirely online in both cases. The choice is up to you.

Have you checked out this link: https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Communities-Library/New-SAS-OnDemand-for-Academics-Dashboard/ta-p...

 

You can download Enterprise Guide to work with SODA but SAS Studio is just a browser app that doesn't require a download.

Hi:

  It's possible that you're looking at one of our older videos. References to "SAS University Edition" are no longer valid for the reasons outlined in the previous postings. Students would need to use SAS Studio on our SAS OnDemand for Academics server by getting an account  (https://welcome.oda.sas.com ) in order to get free access to SAS for practicing.

Hi: Our Programming 1 class is free and there is a data creation program in the course that will create all the Programming 1 data files on the SAS OnDemand server in your account. This can give you files to work with. And, of course, there is always the SASHELP library, You can ALWAYS try running code like this with the SASHELP data sets:

** see what files are in the library;
proc contents data=sashelp._all_ nods memtype=data;
title '1) PROC CONTENTS';
run;

** print information about just one data file in the SASHELP library;
proc contents data=sashelp.shoes;
title '2) Contents on SASHELP.SHOES';
run;

** print limited number of rows from a SAS data file;
proc print  data=sashelp.shoes(obs=15);
title '3) PRINT 15 rows from SASHELP.SHOES';
run;

** PROC FREQ to get count and percent information;
proc freq data=sashelp.shoes;
title '4) PROC FREQ on selected variables from SASHELP.SHOES';
tables region product;
run;

** Generate simple statistics;
proc means data=sashelp.shoes maxdec=2 min mean median max sum;
title '5) PROC MEANS to generate simple statistics';
class product;
var sales;
run;
