Rentals
Save some money.
College is expensive enough, which is why we want to help you out a bit by offering rental programs for pricey electronics. Check out what we offer and how you can take advantage.
Don’t let expensive graphing calculators hold you back—rent one from us instead. Here is what we offer:
- TI-83 for $10/semester
- TI-84 for $15/semester
- TI-89 for $15/semester
Graphing calculators are available only to currently enrolled Purdue Fort Wayne and IU Fort Wayne students, on a first-come, first-served basis. Since we have a limited supply, our calculators are typically rented within the first few weeks of the semester, so make sure to reserve yours early. Please note that calculators are rented by the semester, and failure to return yours at the end of the semester will result in a late fee and a hold on your student account.
To rent a calculator, use our online store or bring your student ID and cash or a check the Student Government Association office in Walb Union, Room 225.
The following information applies to your rental terms:
- iPads are available now for immediate pickup.
- iPads must be returned at the end of each semester; no multisemester rentals will be available.
- iPads are available only to currently enrolled Purdue Fort Wayne students, on a first-come, first-served basis.
- You will need to create an Apple ID in order to activate the rented iPad.
- We recommend creating an Apple ID prior to coming to the office. If needed, we will assist you with this process.
- You will need to remove your Apple ID upon returning the device.
