Need a new computer?
First check with your department, as they will have proper recommendations for you (such as Apple/PC, laptop/desktop, etc.), then go from there.
Nursing, Pharmacy, and School of Management students are required to have a laptop. Other programs do not require a computer, but we recommend that students have a computer for their convenience.
Program-Specific Requirements
We recommend checking with the school or program for specific requirements, such as:
General Recommended Specs
Computer/Desktop Recommendation for students
NOTE: Chromebooks and iPads are not recommended as a primary computer due to limited software availability.
Discounts Available
Apple and Dell both have discounts for students available at:
Apple Store for Education
Dell University Program
NOTE: Binghamton University does not endorse any of these vendors or their offers other than to provide the options to our students.
