Loaner Laptops

OSCR has laptops! OSCR now has a pool of laptops for loan. Up to 20 laptops can be used by colleges, departments, or officially-recognized student groups for a period of 3-30 days. Laptops are free of charge when used for events that do not charge registration or admission fees and do not require special configurations. If there is a charge to participants of the event, the department or organization must pay a laptop use fee. Laptops are configured with Windows XP Professional and Office 2007. Additional software and configuration changes may be available by request.

Reserved laptops can be picked up in the OSCR Underground (ILC 136). For delivery options please see the fee structure.

Current fee structure:


Laptop Use Fee: $20 per laptop per day
Laptop delivery fee: On-campus - $50
Off-campus (within the City of Tucson) - $100

For additional software and configuration changes please contact us for a cost estimate.

Laptop fees must be paid to the Office of Student Computing Resources at least three days prior to the scheduled pickup / delivery. If a department or organization wishes to cancel an order they must submit a cancellation request no later than 3 days prior to pickup / delivery. Reservations not cancelled on-time will still be responsible for paying the complete cost associated with the order.
