  Hi Friends,
  
  Currently Workbench is not taking Parasolid file through import option in ANSYS Student V 18.2. Highlighted error in ANSYS Meshing is shown below:
  
  Workaround: You need to import the file in Design Modeler (DM) first and then proceed for meshing.
  
  Hopefully we will fix this bug in our upcoming version soon.
  
  Thanks & Regards,

  Hi Vishal,
  
  The same behavior was in Student 17.2 also and the same workaround was used.
  
  I have a commercial license at work which includes Parasolid Import, so I can import in Workbench. The simple fix is to add the Parasolid import license to the Student license.
  
  Regards,
