Computer Requirements
Students are required to have a computer, which in many cases can be covered by financial aid. The computer requirement is to help ensure access to Brightspace course shells, software and other electronic course materials, as well as access to online and virtual academic student support (e.g. tutoring, research assistance and the Online Writing Center), which all contribute to overall student success.
