• If the student fails to renew a device, it will be considered late or lost and replacement fees will be applied to their bursar account.

• The student is solely responsible for any loss or damage to devices checked out to them.

• TCC does not provide insurance for devices but the student may purchase their own independent electronic device insurance themself, or contact their insurance provider to see if the devices are already covered by their current insurance plan.
