Tech Support

WSU Tech Support serves all students, faculty, and staff whether you’re on the Winona campus, Rochester campus, or working remote.

We’re ready to help you access technology resources and troubleshoot any problems.

The Technical Support Center (TSC) assists, educates and serves students, faculty and staff with hardware and software.

Tech Support will help students who aren’t enrolled in the eWarrior program access email, connect to wi-fi, learn to use campus-supported software, and print from their personally owned devices.

For students, the fee will be added your student account. Faculty and staff need to sign a chargeback form authorizing the rental fee to be charged to their department.

All rates are based on the client picking up and returning the laptop to the Technical Support Center during business hours. If it is returned late, fees will continue to be assessed until the laptop is returned.

Requests for adding special software, delivery and set up of laptops, and assistance outside of the Tech Support Center will be charged at a rate of $45/hour and may require advance planning. If the rental laptop is returned damaged, fees will be assessed as noted in the eWarrior agreement.

Data Backup & Recovery

Support for Personal Devices

If you are an enrolled student but not part of the eWarrior Digital Life and Learning Program, the Technical Support Center provides limited assistance for your personal devices:

Students and employees can set up and configure their personal smartphones and other handheld devices for email and to connect to the WSU network.

The Tech Support Center will help if time is available. With hundreds of different smartphones and handheld devices sold from numerous vendors, we do not guarantee that our staff will be able to successfully configure your device. The Tech Support Center cannot be held responsible for damages or loss of data.
