Information Technology provides software support and problem resolution for all Academy-owned computers and associated peripheral devices. However, when employees or students have problems with their privately owned computers, they need to make private arrangements for support and service. Please note that most off-campus repair and troubleshooting providers expect a down payment or credit card number when the item is picked up or expect payment for the first consultation. Information Technology cannot make these arrangements for you. When outsourced technicians are on campus, they are working for the Academy and cannot provide consultation regarding personal machines, nor can they leave messages at the Support Desk for non-Academy business.

Our first recommendation is for users to contact the vendor where the equipment was purchased or the manufacturer. In the Academy's experience, no local vendor will work on laptops; they generally need to be shipped back to the manufacturer.

Students may request onsite support by a vendor of their choice at their own expense, but the visit must be scheduled with previous approval of the dorm head.
