Computer Requirements
The College has shared computer resources strategically located around the campus in the Miller Information Commons (library), computer labs, the student lounge, and other areas.
Our IT help desk provides assistance connecting personal computers to the campus network. If the student computer needs hardware repair, the student will be referred to his or her warranty service provider or a local vendor for service.
Champlain College cannot guarantee full network resources for computers that do not meet the recommended specifications, including older Microsoft Windows computers and Macintosh or Linux computers.
