Online Bookstore FAQs for Students

As your school’s official bookstore, we guarantee you will receive the correct items for your courses. We also have a dedicated Customer Service Department to answer any questions you have. Finally, we monitor all orders daily to ensure you receive course materials as quickly as possible and before the start of class.

If you do not see any course materials listed for a particular class, this could be because course materials have not been finalized or are not required by the professor. You will need to check back to see if any course materials have been added.

The Online Bookstore’s goal is to offer students the most competitive price for their textbooks. With our dynamic pricing model, textbook prices are subject to change based on market prices and inventory conditions.

Marketplace books are items listed and shipped by independent sellers, such as other students and parents. These sellers have two (2) business days after your order is placed to ship the order. Please be sure to read each item’s description before ordering, as each Marketplace book has its own condition, description, and shipping cost. Not all Marketplace items are available for expedited shipping, and these items will arrive separately from the rest of your order.

Books are shipped based on availability. The availability of each book will be indicated under the condition of each item. If a book is in stock and your order is placed before 11 AM ET, it will ship the same day. Any orders placed after 11 AM ET will ship the next business day. If all items are not in stock at the time you place your order, it will be held and shipped once the entire order is filled. If it is within two (2) weeks of the course start date, items will ship as they are available, and you may receive multiple packages. Your books will be shipped via your selected shipping method at checkout. Books are shipped and delivered Monday through Friday

You may ship your order anywhere you choose. When entering shipping information, you may have the option to check the “Ship to Campus” box to ship directly to your campus. If “Ship to Campus” is not available for your campus, you may enter any valid shipping address. You will receive email and text message alerts (if you choose to opt in) when your package is shipped and delivered.

Yes, we do accept Visa and MasterCard debit cards. You may also use Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover credit cards to pay for your order. We also accept PayPal and Apple Pay. For more information, please visit our Online Help Desk located at the very bottom of the Online Bookstore homepage.

Your credit or debit card will be authorized and charged upon placing your order. If you are renting books, your credit card will remain on file in case the rented books are not returned or are returned damaged.

You are required to enter your credit card information if you select to rent any of your books. Your credit card will only be charged the price of a new book if your rental book is not returned to us by the due date (indicated at the time of your order) or returned damaged. In order for us to accept your credit card, it must have an expiration date that exceeds the rental due date. The credit card you provide as collateral for rentals will not be charged if your rental books are returned to us on time and in good condition.

If you do not have a debit or credit card to make a payment online, you can mail a check or money order to us along with a printed copy of your order. The check must cover the cost of the order plus any applicable tax and shipping. Your order will be processed once the check or money order has cleared our financial institution. You cannot rent books if you pay with a check or money order.

• Name of school
• Registered courses
• Title, ISBN, quantity, and condition (new, used, or digital) of each book you need to order
• Preferred shipping method
• Shipping address
