There are several different ways to download GitLab based on OS, so students/instructors will need to determine which method of download works for their device.

What can I expect?

Support Tier: Tier 3 - Divisional/Departmental Support: Miami IT resources exist to support the faculty within their respective academic divisions. In most cases, individual users who contact IT Help receive best effort support. If unsuccesful, they would refer the use to contact the instructor of their course. Instructors seeking support for unresolved issues would be escalated to their divisional IT team.
Acquisition Model: Direct Download: Software is downloaded to a local computer and installed to run from that specific device.

Licensing Model: Registered User License: The license is included with online registration.
