Student Technology Initiative
Beginning Fall 2021, all freshman students at The University of Texas at Dallas are required to possess a laptop that meets or exceeds the University’s minimum hardware specifications. Laptops are encouraged for all other students, including incoming transfer students and graduate students. The goal of this program is to ensure that all students have access to the technology needed to be successful in their course of study. The University offers many resources to help students with this initiative including financial aid and a technology loaner program. No student will be denied admission to UT Dallas or registration in a course based on an inability to afford a laptop.
To start, review hardware and software specifications. Have questions? View FAQs or chat with us for help.
