Laptop Requirements

Required Laptops

Like all of CCA, the Graduate Program in Design relies on Macintosh computers and software. The Macintosh and recommended software are particularly crucial in the context of collaborative work. We strongly recommend the "CCA Recommended Bundle" for our students. The preconfigured bundle is available at the Recommended Systems page of our custom Apple store.

The following software is available to order at the Educational Technology Services section of the CCA website. Note: Prices listed are estimated costs for CCA students. Exact pricing may vary.
