ABOUT
An ECAR Study notes that virtually all students report owning a computer, with an astounding 74% owning a laptop or notebook computer.
Recognizing that computing plays an important role in higher education, ODU has an expectation regarding student computer ownership.
Old Dominion has established a minimum set of hardware and software requirements computers must meet to effectively use the information technology resources offered at the University. Requirements insure that student computers work with our essential academic tools such as Blackboard and Leo Online.
Other Options Available
Generic system specifications for both the Windows and Macintosh platforms are available. Incoming students may also choose to take the generic specifications and make their purchases elsewhere. Limited software support is provided to non-program computers. Hardware support is extended to program computers only.
