Textbooks
Welcome, students! Starting this Fall and Spring semesters, you will receive all of your required books, by default, through our Day 1 Textbook Access (D1TA) program.
With D1TA, you receive instant access to your textbooks by the first day of classes for a flat rate. The price is $250 for full-time students and $165 for part-time students.
Participation in the D1TA program is not mandatory and you have until the deadline to add/drop classes without approval to opt out. If you prefer, you can still shop for textbooks separately and utilize our online price comparison tool. Please just remember to opt out of the D1TA program if shopping for books separately.
Please keep an eye out for emails 1-2 weeks before classes start regarding access and opt out information. This information will also be available through the MyTextbooks Hub in Canvas.
