IPads - discontinued in 2024
- Prior to fall 2024, the Keystone College iPad Program provided full-time traditional undergraduate students with an iPad device. Incoming students were issued an iPad and a case for their exclusive use as a full-time (fall/spring semester) undergraduate student. iPads are the property of Keystone College. Upon baccalaureate graduation and full settlement of the student’s financial obligations to the College, the iPad becomes the student’s property.
- Students keep their iPads during winter and summer break times even if not taking classes during the break.
- Eligibility for this program requires continuous full time enrollment in the College’s undergraduate fall/spring programs. Students who leave the College short of the graduation requirement may avoid additional rental charges by promptly returning the device and all accessories to the Keystone College Tech Corner, located on the second floor of Hibbard Campus Center. If the iPad and its accessories are not returned in a timely manner, a prorated fee will be imposed.
