Emergency Laptop Lending Program
Having laptop problems can make keeping up with school difficult. The VRC has a limited number of laptops available to lend to veteran and military-affiliated students experiencing unexpected hardship. This program can help students whose computers have stopped working or who are waiting to receive equipment through their VA benefits. Laptops are available on a first-come, first-served basis, depending on availability. To request a laptop, complete the Laptop Lending Request Form with your current term, laptop preference, and a brief explanation of your situation. A VRC staff member will follow up to arrange an in-person pickup appointment and complete the lending agreement.
