Students at UB are expected to have access to a computer—access beyond what is provided in the University’s public computing sites and department labs.

UB supports computers running the current Microsoft Windows, Apple OS X, or UBLinux operating systems.

Our Students Needing Assistance Program (SNAP) provides help to incoming students in need of financial assistance. SNAP is a first-come, first-served program, and quantities are limited.

Note: Faculty and staff should work with their departmental support staff to determine the functionality.
