I know you can get Acedemic Versions of software such as Photoshop and 3D Studio Max,  however they are still relatively expensive.  Around $200-400 I think.  I'm not positive though.  If I were you I would just search the internet.  I'm sure you could find some either cheap ones or free ones out there, I know I have before.  They are obviously less powerful, but they might still serve your needs.

 

I guess if you really want to learn 3D programming and you might become a professional in it or at least get paid for it then I'd suggest getting 3D Studio Max 3 (the latest revision)  because that will fall in price now that 3D Studio Max Discrete (or something to that name -it's version 4) is coming out.
