Important Notes
- As with a traditional Computer Lab, there are a limited amount of available seats. As a courtesy, you should try to limit your time on the virtual applications to allow other students an opportunity to use the software.
- Once you close an application, there is an automatic 15-minute idle timeout feature to release the session to another student.
- Please remember to save your work early and often using your local hard drive or an external storage device (e.g., thumb drive/USB key) or cloud storage solutions as Google Drive or Microsoft OneDrive
- Best to use Google Chrome browser to receive best experience with Citrix Workspace App.
