Notebook Ownership For Mobile eLearning
📢 Purchase notebook online at the Authorised Notebook Suppliers’ website.

Priority for notebook purchases will be given to 2026 Freshmen (Full-time & Poly Foundation Programme).
Important: Year 2, Year 3 and Full-Time CET students, as well as staff, should only purchase from May 2026 onwards*, as freshmen are given priority to secure a notebook first. Thank you for your understanding.
*If you require a notebook urgently for your studies (e.g. a faulty notebook), please contact the notebook suppliers directly via email first. Request will be subject to review and stock availability
You must use your personal notebook computer and other IT device(s) for learning and assessment at NP, as required by your Diploma course.
As part of the vision for mobile e-learning, Ngee Ann Polytechnic introduced the own-a-notebook computer scheme for its students in July 1999 to ensure that every student is equipped to participate in and benefit from the Polytechnic's Mobile eLearning (MeL) environment. This environment prepares you for work and life in an increasingly digital world.
Your notebook computer will be an integral part of your learning experience at Ngee Ann as it will enable you to engage in IT-enabled learning activities and digital learning environments, both in-class and outside of scheduled class times. This gives you the 'anytime, anywhere' flexibility to work on assignments, surf the internet for information, access module websites, participate in online activities, communicate with your tutors, interact and collaborate with your classmates & project members, create digital content, and much more.
Depending on the course you are enrolling into, you will need to own either a Windows-based notebook computer or a Mac-based Apple notebook computer.
More details can be found on the "Windows or Mac?" page.
