 Every student, faculty and staff Dell laptop is purchased with a 4 Year Complete Care Warranty with Accidental Damage protection. To clarify, this means that every component of the laptop is covered for all 4 years with the exception of the battery. The battery warranty only lasts 1 year. As long as the IT Helpdesk can send back the broken component to Dell we can replace anything on the laptop for no charge. ​ Every student, faculty and staff Dell laptop is purchased with a 4 Year Complete Care Warranty with Accidental Damage protection.

-:!: As added emphasis, there is a rumor that only 50% of the laptop needs to recovered in order to receive replacement parts. **This is not the case.** For every part that gets sent to the Helpdesk from Dell, we need to be able to send the broken part back. 
  
 Parts are typically received within 24-48 hours of ordering. Depending on current workload and complexity of the repair, full turnaround time may vary. Parts are typically received within 24-48 hours of ordering.
