Any student enrolled at Oxnard College who is in need of a computer may apply for one at the Adopt-a-Computer program.

This program is made possible through the Oxnard College Foundation. In order to apply, Students can fill out an application and show current enrollment and valid ID at the OC Foundation office at Services Building area beside parking lot G.

When approved, the student pays a $65 fee and schedules a time to pick up the computer at Oxnard College. All computers come pre-installed with software, a keyboard, monitor and a mouse. An orientation can be requested on how to set up the computer, to go over basic usage, and how to correct common errors.

The computers are distributed on a first come, first serve basis. The Adopt A Computer program is sponsored by donations for individuals, public and private corporations.

Volunteer technical staff receives the donated computers and tests their operation with the basic software set needed by a student to accomplish their college course work. Those interested to use their technical skills in PC hardware and software are welcome to volunteer. For more information contact Albert Gesling at (805) 986-5957.
