Proposal

Narrative

For our student services area, we have always had computers available for the students to use. The computers in that area had aged and needed to be upgraded/replaced so we temporarily provided computers from another project/allotment that we had so that the students would have a working device for their use. Updating these computers to a modern standard will provide the following benefit: i. This will allow for new students to apply for the college and/or obtain information about our programs with guidance from our Student Services staff. ii. Any student that meets with an advisor will have the ability to directly register for their classes using one of these computers instead of trying from their mobile device or waiting to get home to register. iii. The Advisors and/or Student Services staff can instruct the students to fill out different applications or forms while using these computers.
