Textbook Rental Program
The Campus Store’s textbook rental program provides every undergraduate and graduate student access to textbooks and course materials, digitally and physically, in exchange for a fixed fee per semester.
The program's digital delivery system offers students equitable access, convenience, sustainable options — and savings. Approximately 85% of textbooks and course materials are available in digital form; titles that are not will be available as a physical textbook.
Benefits of the digital program
- Students arrive on the first day of class with access to course materials already in place.
- Students can access content anywhere, anytime — including offline.
- Digital books increase accessibility for individuals with various disabilities and accommodate screen readers or font enlargement.
- Digital books are sustainable, requiring no physical delivery, packing materials or labor, nor do they contribute to landfill waste.
Costs
- Student fees include a fixed cost per term that covers required textbooks and course materials. The fee for undergraduate students is $278 for Spring and Fall terms and $65 for Summer terms. Graduate students will have a fee of $120 for Spring and Fall terms and $25 for Summer terms.
- Some course materials, including lab kits, workbooks, one-time use items, course packs, and other items are not included in the rental fee and will be purchased separately.
- Students can choose to opt out of the program each term. For example, students who have internships or limited need for materials during a term may opt out. Others might want to buy and keep their materials for future reference.
