  •  Students must have access to a desktop or laptop (preferably Mac) that is less than 3 years old, 2.7 GHz/i5 – i7 processor and has 16 GB of RAM and 500 GB SSHD *No exceptions*. (No Chromebooks are allowed because they do not meet the basic specifications.)
  • Students are required to have an additional monitor.
  • Students need access to a web cam and microphone for remote conferencing.

Below is the basic information for non-coding programs:

It is the responsibility of the student to ensure that these requirements are met.
