General Info

The Student PC Shop has two main functions:

• Student computer prep & repair
• Helping students in on-campus housing get connected to AU_WiFi and AU_GameNet

 

PC Prep & Repair

Students may bring their personal computers to the SPCS for repair or to prep the computer for use on the Auburn network. The cost of this service is a fraction of that found at other local stores and is directly billed to student's bursar account. Work done on personal computers will fall into one of these levels:
