Laptop Recommendations

Looking to buy/upgrade your laptop?

The laptop requirement ensures that you will have access to the resources needed to successfully complete NYU Stern's program of study. 

If you will be purchasing a laptop for your time at NYU Stern, already own a laptop computer, or choose to select a different model, please check that it meets our recommended configuration.

We provide best-effort support for all student laptops to troubleshoot and fix any software or device issues. Any issues that require replacing or repairing hardware or reinstalling an operating system will generally need to be handled directly by the manufacturer's support.

If you are unsure where to start, the NYU Bookstore is a great place to look at.

We recommend students NOT to purchase Chromebooks, as there are software that are incompatible with ChromeOS.
