Undergraduate Laptop Program


The Carlson Undergraduate Laptop Program is a unique program that aligns with the School's strategy of creating a mobile, collaborative learning environment for students. Carlson School undergraduates will be able to take advantage of this mobile environment from their first day on campus through graduation, with a seamless transition into the business world.


**Due to unanticipated nationwide demand for wireless N card technology, Lenovo is experiencing constraints on the availability of the ThinkPad wireless card available in the T61 performance model. In order to maintain standard shipping times, we are currently switching to an Intel wireless card which will support wireless N technology. The change has been completed Friday, August 1, 2008.


The Laptop Program for 2008 has been closed. The program extension has expired early due to supply constraints. Please contact uglaptop@umn.edu with any questions.
