Laptop Choice Request Form

Laptop Choice Request Form
Processing Delays

Due to global chip shortages, IT Central is experiencing significant delays in receiving new laptops ordered from manufacturers. Please be aware that these delays can cause availability issues for newly requested laptops. If necessary and where possible, IT Central will provide a loaner laptop to the individual requiring it.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may pose.
The Laptop Choice Program provides one approved standard computer (see below for details) to every full-time staff and faculty per a set refresh schedule.

This form is intended to be used only for:
1. A new hire who requires a computer to fulfill their job responsibilities.
2. An existing employee who has been informed by IT Central that they are eligible for a computer replacement per the Laptop Choice Program.
Please reference the Laptop Choice Program policies and FAQ for additional information. If you have further questions about the form or the program, please reach out to IT Central at itcentral@newschool.edu
