Hello Eric,
There are both trial and Academic editions of Visual Studio .NET available.
Look here for the trial:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/productinfo/trial/default.aspx

The Academic Edition can be found at your college bookstore, or at a vendor
that carries academic software, and normally costs about $100 US (vs. the
$1000+ commercial price).

A couple of online vendors are:

www.provantage.com
www.genesis-technologies.com

You also might want to make the faculty at your school aware of the
Microsoft Developers Network Academic Alliance (MSDNAA). Memberships are
open to qualifying departments at very low annual subscription rates, and
allow the member department to distribute a wide range of Microsoft software
titles to enrolled students *at no charge to the student*.
Have them start reading here:

I'm thinking about going back to school this Fall for some .net classes.
Does anyone know if any of the community colleges in Orange County,
California participate in the MSDNAA program? Does the MSDNAA program
include all the content available under the MSDN universal subscription?

If you're a student, you can get a premium membership for theSpoke.net which
gets you access to VS Academic for $25. More info at
http://thespoke.net/Premium/.

Thanks very much for that link, Ed!
That's a great alternative for students not in our department.

Robert,

Go to http://www.msdnaa.net/search/schoolsearch.aspx to see what community
colleges in California are members of the MSDNAA.
