Laptop Transfer of Ownership

Upon graduation all students are required to complete a Transfer of Ownership Agreement that legally transfers the ownership of the student's SHU-issued laptop from Seton Hall University to the student. Upon transfer, the device would be viewed by Seton Hall University and PC Support Services as a personally owned machine and as such no longer eligible for hardware nor software support, as outlined below.

The device is provided as is to the customer; therefore, any pre-existing hardware and/or software issues should be addressed before completion of form. Upon transfer of ownership:

• Maintenance of the machine will be the responsibility of the customer, including operating system updates, software installations/upgrades and virus prevention.

• Seton Hall University and/or PC Support Services will no longer be permitted to perform any hardware type repairs. If hardware issue were to occur, we advise you to contact the hardware vendor for assistance.

• Seton Hall University and/or PC Support Services will no longer be permitted to address software type issues. If software issue were to occur, we advise you to contact the hardware vendor and/or local authorized repair center for assistance.

If a customer attends as an undergraduate student (and receives a laptop) and then returns as a graduate student, the device that the student received during his/her undergraduate time at the University will be viewed as a personal device and as such not eligible for support by Seton Hall University. The Transfer of Ownership form completed at end of undergraduate studies ends the machine’s eligibility for Seton Hall support services.

In addition to completing the Laptop Transfer of Ownership Agreement, it is your responsibility to follow the instructions to remove your laptop from the SHU Domain. This removes all the restrictions on your laptop, and does not affect any of your data or pre-installed software.
