Apple Computers
Apple offers a standard discount to all college students on their Macintosh devices. Discounts are not always available on iOS devices (such as iPhones, iPads, and iPods). These discounts can be obtained online through the Apple store for Education. Discounts can also be obtained while shopping in any Apple retail store by showing a UNI ID card.
Sometimes, Best Buy offers discounts on Apple devices, both iOS and Macintosh, for education customers. To be alerted to such deals, it is recommended that one sign up for the Best Buy Student Hub.
Dell Computers
For Microsoft Windows-based computers, UNI recommends Dell. Specific, compatible models are available at the UNI store at Dell.
Other Computers and Hardware Considerations
Apple and Dell are computers that UNI can whole-heartedly recommend. They are not the only computers that will serve you well while at UNI. Visit the following articles for more ideas and suggestions on what to look for in your new computer.
