The School of Nursing (SON) maintains a fleet of loaner computers available to students, faculty, and staff for short-term use. There is no charge to borrow a laptop; however, borrowers are expected to treat all equipment with the same care as their own devices.


⏳ Loan Period

  • Typical loan period: 1–3 days

  • Extended loans may be approved if your personal device is being repaired or replaced
