When You Need Software

Pitzer College has a formal process for reviewing and approving software and related services to ensure alignment with campus needs, budget, and data security requirements.

Before purchasing new software, departments should check if similar tools already exist and then submit a request for review. All software must submit to a security and data privacy assessment.

If you're considering new software, please:

  1. Review our Software Procurement Policy (Pitzer login required).

  2. Fill out the Software Procurement Intake Form (Pitzer login required).
