- inclusive of the coach recognizing when to recommend another service for support that goes beyond the boundaries of coaching.

Loaner Laptop Program – Eligibility & Process
To be considered for the Loaner Laptop Program, students must first receive a Faculty Referral.
This referral serves as the initial step in the process and confirms that a faculty member has identified an academic need for the student to receive a loaner laptop.
Faculty referrals will be based on the instructor’s professional evaluation of the student, including factors such as:
- Class attendance and engagement
- Behavior and participation in class
- Completion of assignments and overall academic responsibility
- Demonstrated need for access to a laptop to support coursework
Once a referral is submitted:
- The Student Life team will review the faculty’s recommendation
- Students will be contacted within 1-2 business days regarding the status of their referral
- If the referral meets program criteria, the student will receive instructions on how to schedule and attend a Loaner Laptop Orientation
Please note:
- Submitting a referral does not guarantee approval or receipt of a laptop
- Students cannot move forward in the process without a faculty referral
