App purchases and 4G data plan are not covered by the University. If electing to use the cellular 4G connectivity, the user will be responsible for monthly fees with selected provider (AT&T or Verizon). You can sign up for 4G service with your iPad.
Please note that when selecting an iPad, there can be no data transfer from another computer, this will need to be handled by the user. The iPad is a unique device intended to compliment an existing computer and in fact requires a computer for some operations. Please see Apple's iPad information page for additional details.
