The standard loan period for library-owned laptops and hotspots is one semester. However, the library is piloting a loan extension program for the Fall 2024 - Spring 2025 semesters. Eligible students will be contacted with updated loan details once the registration period for the Spring 2025 semester has opened.
If you are not eligible for a loan extension the technology equipment is due promptly at the end of the semester in which they were borrowed. This ensures equal access to this high-demand equipment among all MiraCosta students. It also allows our Information Technology Services team to perform necessary software and security updates between semesters. Failure to return equipment will result in a hold on your account; charges may also be incurred.
To request a laptop and/or hotspot for the following semester, a new Student Technology Request Form must be submitted.
