As students start preparing for the semester, they should also make sure their technology is ready to go before their first day of classes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Here are some student technology reminders you can check off to best prepare for a successful semester.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Make sure you can log into campus applications you need this semester with your ACE account.\u00a0Self-password resets<\/a>\u00a0are available if you forgot or need to change your ACE password.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n Check your Rebelmail email for campus updates going into the semester. When looking at course information on WebCampus, change your WebCampus settings to get important course notifications sent to your Rebelmail. Review your class schedule on MyUNLV for recent changes.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n If you need to, enroll your devices for eduroam to securely access the internet at UNLV and participating eduroam institutions. Use the UNLV-Setup wireless (WiFi) network to start this process, but avoid using it as a primary network since it disconnects after 15 minutes.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n Request to borrow a laptop for the whole semester using the Technology Loan Program. You can also visit computer labs all around campus to conveniently use software you need for your courses. Remember to check for updated lab locations and time before heading to one.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n Check that you have your RebelCard before the start of the semester. If you need to replace your card, visit the RebelCard office. Deposit money online or at a RebelCash Deposit Machine so you can use your card at on-campus food spots, for printing, and for Grubhub orders. You\u2019ll need your card to access your residence hall and the Student Recreation and Wellness Center.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n As a student, find free or discounted rates for various services and products. If you plan to buy a personal device, check out the Personal Computer Purchasing Program for device recommendations and discounts or other incentives.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n For more information and resources, visit the\u00a0students page<\/a>\u00a0on the UNLV IT site or\u00a0contact the IT Help Desk<\/a>\u00a0using one of many support options, which include submitting a ticket, reviewing the knowledge base for common questions, and visiting one of the in-person locations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" As students start preparing for the semester, they should also make sure their technology is ready to go before their first day of classes.
