Important iPad Reminders for New International Students
It is important that you note the following guidelines prior to setting up your iPad.

1. You may purchase an iPad outside of the US; however, for the best outcome, it is recommended you purchase one in the US. For iPad specifications requirements, refer to iPad Requirements in the flyer.

2. Use a US credit card or iTunes gift card to set up your iPad regardless of where you are—in the US or overseas—at the time of setup. Otherwise, you may encounter an issue purchasing and/or downloading textbooks. 

3. Your Apple ID should be associated with your Warriorlife email address, which is your VCS school email. This information is also included in your VCS Welcome Packet. If you already own an iPad and your iPad is associated with a pre-existing Apple ID, it must be your personal Apple ID, not shared with anyone else. If the Apple ID is shared with anyone else, you will need to reset your iPad.
