When a scholarship/grant provides a computer?

You need to read (and understand) every word of the "Fine Print" of the offer.  If I were to assume,  yes,  you would need  to either return the computer to them or pay them for it.  That's the way it is at Carolina, but I try not to assume. The exact offer  you are contemplating is the one you need to study.

Follow on to clarify what I wrote above.  In the case of Carolina, if my DD graduates (hopefully she will!) the machine is hers. However, if she should drop out for some reason, then she would either need to return the machine to them or pay them for the original cost.

I wonder how much it matters, practically speaking. A new laptop with the same specs of one you got 4 years ago is going to be pretty inexpensive. If you're presented with a 'pay for the original cost to keep it' offer, you should definitely decline.
