All incoming students are required to have a personal computer for daily instructional and testing purposes powerful enough to support the demanding program-specific software requirements necessary for testing and coursework, and have adequate storage to accommodate new software releases. Many computer store websites have feature/spec filters to help you find the right model. Our exam platform ‘Examplify’ will not run on Chromebooks, Android, or Linux operating systems. If the device becomes inoperable, a replacement will be required by the student immediately. Devices with virtual operating systems, virtualized environments or external camera or microphones are not permitted.
