School of Architecture: How to Order Your Laptop

Ordering Your Laptop

When ordering your mobile workstation, you will have the option of adding more RAM (Random Access Memory), a bigger hard drive, increased warranty protection, an external display, external storage and other peripherals. When you click on the "Order Laptop" link, it will direct you to a specially-designed page on the Dell Website designed for students in our School of Architecture.

Our licensing agreement with Synergis allows Marywood architecture/interior architecture students to freely download AutoDesk's Autocad 2011, Ecotect and Revit 2011. Other software, such as Microsoft Office and Adobe CS5, are offered at a significant discount to all Marywood students. Simply click on the appropriate link to order and download software.
