Students that are registered for Northern Michigan University classes and have tuition paid are eligible to have a notebook computer assigned.
Students will be issued a notebook computer that is 4 years old or less. Art & Design and Theatre & Dance majors will be issued an Apple notebook computer that is 4 years old or less.
Registered students considered part-time (less than 12 credits for undergraduates or less than 8 credits for graduate students) will be assessed a TLC opt-in fee of $385.00 when a computer is issued. The TLC fee is charged to the student's NMU account. Art & Design and Theatre & Dance majors receive a $250 fee per semester to cover the higher cost of the Apple notebook and additional software.
Notebook computer distribution is held at the beginning of each semester. Eligible students will be notified via their NMU email account in mid-August with distribution information. Continuing students will also be notified via their NMU email account if they will be required to exchange their current notebook computer for another model.
Contact the Asset Management Department by calling (906) 227-2822 or emailing thinkpad@nmu.edu if you have any questions regarding notebook computer distribution or exchange.
