Purchasing a New Computer Prior to Welcome Week?
High Point University students qualify for educational discounts when purchasing computers directly from the following manufacturers.
Minimum Computer Recommendations:
Any computer purchased within the last two years will likely meet our minimum recommendations for accessing our campus network. If you are considering purchasing a new computer please review the following recommendations for your machine.
All students have access to Microsoft Office 365 (Windows 10 | Mac) and 1 TB of OneDrive cloud storage through the university. Many students find tablets, iPads, and other light-weight computers (i.e. Chromebooks) great for note taking, but they may not be sufficient for all assignments.
Majors within the following programs may have additional recommendations or requirements:
School of Art & Design
Nido R. Qubein School of Communication
