Can I purchase RAMtech items with my student account?

Yes! Enrolled CSU students can purchase RAMtech items on their student account, and pay for tech items when they pay their tuition and fees bill to the University.

Students may only purchase one of each major class of device per semester:

  • One computer / laptop
  • One tablet
  • One major accessory (e.g. AirPods, premium headphones)

Students must be enrolled in classes and otherwise the account must be free of holds. Please have your Student ID ready unless otherwise instructed.

Late fees and interest apply to overdue accounts. Contact the CSU Cashier’s Office for billing assistance.

Can We Use Department or Grant Accounts at RAMtech?

We accept payment with Department/Grant Accounts. Please come prepared with the 7-digit account number (and sub-account ID if applicable). We can process in-person or online orders.

Department purchases are tax-exempt, and we require the 4-digit department code or department name to complete the transaction.
