Q) What are my options for renting a calculator?
Rent month-to-month or the semester. Semester terms are four months minimum (Example: You order your calculator on August 15th, you must return your calculator before December 15th to avoid further charges). If you're on the semester bundle, you can still keep the calculator longer, you'll just continue to pay your current rate until the calculator is returned or the replacement fee is paid.
