CS6 isn't too different from CC so that maybe your best viable alternative. However, as a student you should be working with the latest versions (I know, I know...). Even though Adobe moves at a snails pace, in three years I am sure CS6 may be a bit "long in the tooth". Your yearly investment would be £192. Figure out how much similar materials cost you for other courses and you might find it's not that bad of a deal (or maybe it is). It's too bad your instructor is an Adobe minion and doesn't latch onto Corel Graphics Suite. For the price it's the best out there. In any event, be sure to save all your work in a "universal" format in case you decide to dump Adobe like we all want to do. Best of luck with your studies.
