CHANGES TO LAPTOP CHOICE PROGRAM
Effective 11/7/2023 the following changes will be implemented:
- The computer refresh lifecycle has been extended from 4 years to 5 years for a Windows computer and from 5 years to 6 years for a Mac computer.
- IT will not be providing peripherals (i.e. additional monitors, mouse, keyboards, etc.). No exceptions.
The Laptop Choice program provides all full-time faculty and staff with one computer (only). The computer is a choice of a Mac or a PC laptop providing access to a seamless digital workspace.
Laptops are a more agile, sustainable, and cost-effective solution that provides an integrated seamless digital workspace for a more collaborative workforce. Learn more about the program here.
Please email IT Central at itcentral@newschool.edu for a consultation.
