Hi, here's an answer you might be able to use. If you can't use SAS University Edition on your desktop, there are ways to access it online.
There are three ways to learn and use SAS for free. Two of these methods use just your internet connection and don't require any installation; the third allows you to practice on your own machine even when you are disconnected from the internet.
1. SAS University Edition through Amazon Web Services. This software is hosted on Amazon and SAS does not charge for the software. Amazon has the right to charge for use of its service, but most typical learning use won't incur any charges. Visit the SAS University Edition site and scroll down to Get Free Software to select this option.
2. SAS OnDemand for Academics - this is hosted by SAS, and requires that you are enrolled in a course that is taught by a professor who is using the OnDemand environment.
3. SAS University Edition - installed. You download / set up a simple VM player, then download an instance of the SAS University Edition software. The setup is relatively simple -- many thousands of people have done this to learn SAS.
