Purchases and Selling
May I sell my iPad, MacBook, or accessories?
- No, unless you have purchased your iPad from the University and received notice that it has been removed from Mobile Device Management (JAMF), you may not sell the iPad, MacBook, or Accessories. They are still the property of NSU until you graduate or leave the university and pay for the device.
May I buy my iPad or MacBook from the University?
- Yes, when you graduate you will only pay $1 to purchase your device. You may also purchase your device for a depreciated value based on the amount of time you have owned the device if you leave the University for any other reason. Please see the depreciation schedule at the end of this document.
If I buy my iPad or MacBook from the University, what happens to the AppleCare+ For Schools (4 Year) Coverage?
- The coverage follows the device. If the device still has warranty coverage, ownership of the device will allow the coverage to be used.
Mobile Device Management
Why do I need to log in with my university ID to set up my device?
- While you are using the device at NSU, the device is enrolled in a mobile device management system. Logging in connects the device to your id so that we can keep track of inventory and ensure every student has a device.
What restrictions are in place for the Mobile Device Management system?
- NSU cannot access the data on your device. We are using the management system for the following purposes:
- If lost or stolen, we can put the device in the lost mode so that the device is unusable until it is returned to the University.
- To track inventory and to ensure that a student received a device.
- Push and update applications that will make it easier to access NSU services (ex. Blackboard, myNSU Mobile).
Will the MDM system ever be removed from my device?
- Yes, once you graduate/leave and pay the purchase price, the Office of Information Technology will remove the MDM control from the device.
