Willamette MBA students are required to have a laptop computer. In some classes you will use your laptop extensively; in others periodically or minimally. You will need your laptop on Wednesday, August 20, 2008. The cost to purchase the required laptop can be included in your financial aid budget.
Special Note #2: If you intend to use a laptop provided
by an organization or employer for your MBA course work, be sure the laptop administration
is NOT restricted by the organization's IT department. You may be required to
install software, make network changes, or make other system configuration changes
to your laptop. Laptops with administration lock down or that are only partially
configurable will not meet the requirements of this program. HP 6720: The Willamette Store will have some of the HP6720 systems in stock and available for purchase at The Willamette Store before Compass Week. If you prefer to pre-order your system you can do so at http://www.willamette.edu/bookstore/computershop/hpform.htm. If you pre-order your computer, be sure to fax your credit card authorization form to The Willamette Store at 503-375-5466. If you pre-order, you will pick up your new computer at The Willamette Store. The Willamette Store cannot ship computers. Apple: If you are interested in ordering
a Mac, you can order it though Apple or The Willamette Store. The Willamette Store
does not carry Apple computers in stock but will happily place the order for you.
To order from The
Willamette Store, send The Willamette Store your order and they will place the
order for you. To do this, you will need to be sure to complete the credit
card authorization form and fax it to The Willamette Store at 503-375-5466.
If there is a sales tax in your state, you WILL NOT have to pay a sales tax if
you order through The Willamette Store (because Oregon doesn't have a sales tax).
Your new computer will be delivered to The Willamette Store where you can pick
it up. The Willamette Store cannot ship computers. Apple is offering
an iPod Nano or iPod Touch rebate with purchase of just about any Apple computer
until September 15. A PDF document with more information about the rebate
offer is available at http://www.willamette.edu/bookstore/computershop/BTS08_TCS.pdf.
You can access a link to the Budget Adjustment Form and other graduate aid forms at http://www.willamette.edu/dept/finaid/graduate.htm I f you are planning to use financial aid funds to pay for your laptop, be sure sure to purchase your laptop before August 20th and use your financial aid funds to reimburse yourself. Financial aid funds cannot be disbursed before August 20th.
