Required and optional textbooks and course materials are available to students for purchase in print and/or electronic formats through our Virtual University Bookstore.
The Virtual Bookstore is open three weeks prior to the start of each term and closes at the end of the third week into each term. All students are encouraged to place their orders as soon as possible once the Virtual Student Bookstore opens to ensure a timely delivery of their materials prior to the course start date.
Purchases are delivered directly to the student’s place of residence, email address (access code orders only), or Virtual Bookshelf (for eBook orders only). Students must purchase their required textbooks and course materials every term from the Virtual Bookstore or from a retail outlet of their choice. Students are expected to obtain and utilize the editions and versions of textbooks and materials as specified in their course syllabi.
Being prepared for class with the right tools is an important step towards achieving academic excellence.
The Virtual University Bookstore offers a Guaranteed Buyback* program that can significantly decrease the overall cost of owning your print textbooks as well as a customer loyalty bonus.
*Guaranteed Buyback services for print textbooks are provided by MBS Service Company, Inc. (MBS).
