Do Apple do anything to encourage independent student learning?

I am a university student and I'm taking a relatively free-formed class where everyone gets to pick projects they are passionate about (within reason) and I'm coding an AR app. I would like to be able to share it with my tutor (for grading) as well as my peers but I can't afford to spend nearly $150 AUS dollars to get one app distributed when it's not like I was gonna charge for its use. I just figured Apple would have something in place to encourage independent learning, particularly when they make programs like Xcode free. I'm sure I'm not the only one out there who is just getting into app development and is interested in learning more but can't financially commit to the Apple Developers Program. I might have missed something or be wrong altogether, so if anyone can help I'd be really grateful.

Could your organization apply for free licence ?

Or you could also get a free account (it has limitations, but that may be enough for you):

You may already be using it, but that would be why Apple providesXcode's free provisioning, and there may be a chance you can also use it to build to your tutor's device...it would need to be physically connected to your computer, tho, and I'm not sure if it has to be seen as your owned device. Might be worth a try as Apple does not provide for a casual distribution scheme otherwise.


Good luck.
