Technology Resources

Technology Requirements

All students will need access to a computer with video and audio capability to fully participate in courses and to be able to do testing. UNG's Bookstores now have UNG IT Approved Dell laptops, webcams and accessories available in-store and online at ungbookstore.com.

Learn more about UNG's minimum computer requirements.

Laptop Loaner Program

Laptops with web cam and microphone capabilities are available on all UNG campuses for checkout on a first come, first serve basis.

Only requests made through the Student Equipment Loaner Form (login required) will be honored.

Assistive Technology

There are a number of challenges that can make it harder for students to have equal access to needed technology. Identifying these challenges with a Student Accessibility Services representative will help in the process of utilizing the appropriate technology.

These cases will have to be done on a one on one basis, simply because there are too many challenges to list all probable assistance that is available. Technology accommodations are based on the student’s needs and strengths.
