Computer Discounts

The University of New Haven has arranged for specialized computer discounts with two premiere vendors, Apple and Dell. Both of these vendors offer educational discounts on their product lines as well as  their customized systems. These discounts vary by model, and promotional period, so there is no set discount rate. Purchases made through the Educational Discount programs are strictly between the purchaser and the vendor. Apple and Dell offer extended warranty options that we strongly recommend reviewing and taking advantage of as well. While the University provides all students with technical support, we do not stock, purchase or provide parts.
