Needs-Based Technology Program
Program Policies
At Sessions College, we realize that getting the right computer equipment for your online Bachelor's Degree, Associate Degree, or Undergraduate Certificate program can be a financial and logistical challenge. Our needs-based technology program is designed to assist enrolling students in procuring a suitable laptop computer before the semester starts in order to allow them to meet their goals as a creative learner and professional.
Program Eligibility
Students must complete the following steps to be considered for this program:
- Apply for and be accepted to an eligible degree level program (Bachelor's Degree, Associate Degree or Undergraduate Certificate).
- Complete the most recent FAFSA available
- Complete a Financial Aid appointment prior to completing the Need Based-Technology application
The student must be in good financial standing with Sessions College.
How It Works
Each student who is approved for the program will receive a Macbook M1 computer that meets the specifications for Adobe Creative Suite and other programs required for classes. (Students will be responsible for registering for a Adobe Creative Suite account. Enrolled students are eligible for a student discount).
Important Terms and Conditions
Terms and Conditions
Student applications for the needs-based technology program will be reviewed upon receipt. The school will evaluate a student’s eligibility for the program based on financial need information in the FAFSA and technology program application form.
All program award decisions are final and at the discretion of the college. Students will be notified no later than 2 weeks before the semester start of the outcome of their application.
If approved for the needs-based technology program:
- The student will sign an agreement to have the payment for the computer in the amount of $800 (billable amount for the computer) be added to their Bursar account.
- Depending on financial aid eligibility, the equipment cost may be covered by financial aid or paid for using a 4-installment payment plan.
- If using Financial Aid, the computer will be paid for before sending any excess funds to the student.
- Once agreement has been signed, the computer will be sent via Federal Express to the student.
- Once payment is complete, the student will own the computer.
If student withdraws or cancels from their program before the computer has been paid for, the student is still responsible for the balance due. Should the computer need to be returned for any reason, there will be a $250 administrative fee added to the cost. Students will be sent to collection for any unpaid balances.
