MacBook Laptop Requirement Information

Bring Your Own Laptop to School

Saint Joseph Prep's 1:1 device policy allows our students and teachers to enhance learning in the classroom. SJP was an early mover in adopting a 1:1 device policy six years ago, and continues this policy to best support an exceptional, innovative education.

Each SJP student is required to bring an Apple MacBook to school in the fall. Having all students utilize Apple MacBooks enables a cohesive classroom experience, the best digital textbook availability, and more.

It is the parent or guardian's responsibility to provide their student with an Apple MacBook laptop.

Below are four ways to obtain an Apple MacBook for the fall:

Purchase New MacBook: The typical cost for a new Apple MacBook laptop is between $700 - $1,000.
Purchase Refurbished MacBook: We recognize that purchasing a new laptop is a large financial commitment. You may also want to consider buying or leasing a refurbished MacBook laptop. A refurbished laptop costs between $300 - $600. See below for suggested retailers of refurbished MacBooks.
Lease Refurbished MacBook: Similarly, you may also be able to lease a MacBook for as little as $113 per month. See below for suggested leasing agents.
Use Existing MacBook: If your student already has an Apple MacBook that meets the below specifications, they do not need to purchase a new MacBook, and can use their existing MacBook for school.

Saint Joseph Prep is committed to ensuring that all students have equal access to technology. If you need financial assistance with the purchase of a refurbished laptop, please contact the Business Office.

Recommended Minimum Specifications

Display/Screen Size: 13"
Graphic Card: Intel UHD Graphics 617 or better
Memory/RAM: 8 GB (No less than 8 GB)
Processor Speed: 1.6GHz dual-core Intel Core i5 or better
Hard Drive: 128GB PCIe-based SSD
