What you need to participate:

  • You are a resident of the European Union and are enrolling in an online bachelor’s or master’s programme or advanced training programme at IU.

  • Participants of the company training programmes do not qualify for this benefit. 

Your support at the start and during usage

To facilitate your start at IU with your iPad, we have pre-installed the most important learning and communication tools for you.
