Landmark College has been running a notebook program since 2002, making it possible for students to participate in the advantages technology brings to the learning process.
A notebook computer provides you with easy, wireless connectivity in classrooms and campus areas. Not only will you have 24-hour access to course information and the Internet, you will also have a portable means of utilizing assistive technology. Put simply, your notebook will support anytime, anywhere access to resources and services in a learning environment that extends to the entire campus.
The Notebook
Package is an extremely attractive option. Landmark College has made special agreements with Lenovo & GovConnection, allowing us to secure a powerful notebook computer model at a reduced price. Also included in the Notebook Package are the Landmark software bundle(Kurzweil 3000 Read, Inspiration, Microsoft Office Professional), a bag, insurance protection against theft, and an extended warranty that covers accidental damage.
Why do I need a notebook computer?
All students entering in the fall or spring are required to have a notebook computer that meets certain specifications. (Students attending only the summer sessions are not required to bring a notebook computer.) You may choose to bring a notebook from home or purchase a notebook from Landmark. Notebooks purchased through Landmark College will be supported 100% by the Tech Support Center on campus.
Am I required to purchase the Landmark College Notebook Package?
No. You are simply required to have a notebook computer. All students entering in the Fall or Spring Semesters must have a notebook computer.
We strongly recommend the Notebook Package to meet this requirement for the following reasons:
- You'll get your computer with all of the software already loaded (including the Novell network client and the GroupWise email client).
- We have a certified Lenovo repair center right on campus — we can do repairs, place insurance claims, and reinstall your software if you ever need it: and there is no need for boxes & shipping charges.
- Should you need repairs at any time, we'll loan you another notebook while we're repairing yours.
- We provide a full orientation to the notebook when you arrive.
- If you do choose to bring your own notebook, you must make sure it meets the minimum specifications, including wireless capability.

After you submit the form:
- Landmark's Tech Support Services will confirm your order with
you by email within a few days.
