The college has standardized computer configurations to cover a broad spectrum of uses and to help ensure performance over a 4 year replacement cycle. Additional configurations are available and IT can create a quote for a system to meet your needs. If you need to order computers or have questions about different configurations please submit a support request.

The specifications and prices are provided as a general reference and are subject to change as the technology changes throughout the year.

Please note that in 2012 CSU created a strategic partnership with HP. University and College policy requires that all non-Apple desktops, laptops, tablets, workstations, and monitors purchased must be from the HP business class lines of product. Through the partnership HP provides a number of benefits to the University including student scholarships, internships, and rebates that helps to fund computer replacement cycles.

These are our standard recommendations for most uses. Other models and upgrades are available. After a short meeting to discuss your needs IT will obtain a custom quote with the configuration that will meet your needs. Almost all vendors have dropped DVD drives for their computers, IT recommends an external drive if you need DVD capability.
