iStudent Financing from Square

• Allow for the whole solution: hardware, software, warranties, infrastructure, installation, aftercare etc. • Meet the budgetary and IT needs of institutions of all sizes and minimise the risk of technology obsolesce
• Reduce the risk of damage or loss through provision of equipment protection cover
A programme designed for you Square will work with your Educational Institution and help you design a technology and financing plan that is right for you, and can scale to include a diverse range of products and services; institutional hardware and software, student-leased computers, networking, technical support, AppleCare and protection against accidental damage and loss.
At the end of the lease term - usually 3 years - you can upgrade your equipment, allowing improvements on some or all of your machines, purchase the equipment, letting you retain property of the equipment, and students may be able to purchase their leased computers at Fair Market Value.
Maintain credit lines Equipment can be acquired without impacting the other credit lines, such as loans and overdrafts that are useful for fixed assets or non-tangible investments or working capital financing.
Acquire quality technology in sufficient quality Students and teaching staff will benefit from being able to afford more high tech equipment in larger quantities from day one.
Stay flexible Square can effectively allow you to offer 100% approvals for all of your students giving them access to the tools required for success in today's digital world.

Apple technology is associated with high-quality research and teaching excellence and is the platform of choice for many professions.
