At Minnesota Virtual High School, we want to provide you with all of the tools that you need to be successful. That’s why we provide a laptop computer and Internet allowance for every full-time student enrolled in the program. You will receive your laptop computer directly from our distributor prior to your initial online orientation with your Student Achievement Coordinator.

Computer Hardware and Connectivity
The systems come fully installed with Microsoft® Windows Vista and other tools and utilities. The remaining required software is the responsibility of the family via free downloads.

We also offer comprehensive technical support for the systems we provide through our distributor.

Using Your Own Computer
If you choose to use your own computer, you can use the minimum requirements as a guideline for setting up a system. Our Support Team is available to help if you have questions.

Internet Service
We provide a subsidy for Internet service. You are responsible for obtaining an Internet service provider. You will receive an Internet subsidy of $180 ($90 paid directly to you twice per year) while you are enrolled and making adequate educational progress.
