The University of Maryland's ACT - Academic Computers for Terps - program allows registered students, faculty, and staff to purchase customized Apple and Dell computers at prices below standard discounts, as well as receive substantial added benefits in technical support and warranty protection.

  • Computers are chosen for use on the university networks (both wired and wireless) and with university software programs.
  • Computers are protected by four years of vendor phone support and warranty protection.
  • Warranty repairs are processed on campus and performed by vendor-certified technicians.
  • Loaner computers are available if repairs require the ACT computer to remain at the repair shop overnight.
  • The ACT program, in conjunction with OIT's Software Licensing group, offers discounted software.
