Dear Colleagues,
Campus has a limited-time opportunity to upgrade phones for $0.99 and
receive a lower monthly charge for the next three years.

reducing the monthly service fee for all active and new smartphone, tablet,
and aircard/MiFi lines to $30/month (down from a campus average of
approximately $45/month) to ensure highly competitive pricing.

smartphone lines are eligible to upgrade to the iPhone 17 256GB for $0.99
plus tax by March 31, 2026.Existing AT&T lines also receive an additional
$100 credit applied over 36 months, lowering the effective monthly
smartphone cost to approximately $27.21/month + taxes/fees for 36 months.
After 36 months, pricing adjusts to $30/month + taxes/fees.Key Details

Jamf to support security and configuration management on Apple devices; it
enables remote app deployment, access controls, and helps prevent devices
from being returned in a locked/bricked state. Jamf is not required for all
UCR cell phones, and departments interested in learning more are encouraged
to contact ITS
