Fees are discounted for financial aid students. Long distance service is the financial responsibility of the student and is available through the Academy's long distance provider, a calling, credit or debit card, or operator assistance. A parallel data network provides digital access to the Academy network. Modem connections are not allowed. All students are provided with network access accounts, which allows them to access the Internet, a personal email account, Academy network resources, shared files, personal files, and printing.
Computers are available to students in the Library and various classroom labs throughout campus.
Students are required to attend a one-time network orientation class offered by the librarians. Machines conforming to these guidelines will have sufficient memory and speed to run on our network. Exeter is not committed to any single vendor and will not purchase proprietary equipment. Microsoft Office products, Netscape, and Norton Anti-Virus are standard Academy software applications used on computers by academic departments. While students may choose to use other software than Microsoft Office for word processing, spreadsheets, and presentations, they need to be able to convert documents between applications if they use Academy computers in class.
