First thing you should check is if the school offers VDI - Virtual Desktop Infrastructure. My college has VDI, where you can access a GPU accelerated Windows machine from your browser, preinstalled with tools like Autocad, Photoshop, and other stuff. If your school doesn’t, then you should look at options like VM’s. The problem, however, is that CAD and a lot of other software is GPU intensive, and simply using it in a VM might be too slow for practical usage.

    I asked them about VDI, and they asked me back what is it. Not surprising considering every semester course choosing becomes a nightmare. I will use it for doing homeworks and exams, so speed isn’t my concern.
