First Day® Digital Course Materials

• Deeply discounted. Pay less than the cost of the traditional printed materials sold in the bookstore or available from the publisher.
• Simplified payment process. First Day® digital course material costs are charged to your student account, the same as your tuition and fees.
• Try it before you buy it. Your course materials are provided without charge through the drop/add period. If you are still enrolled in the course and have not chosen to opt-out of First Day®, your student account will be charged.
• Ready to go on day one. Achieve success when you’re prepared on the first day of class with increased course content interaction.
• Save time and frustration. No waiting in line at the bookstore. No waiting for materials to come in the mail. Course materials are automatically available through MyCourses (Brightspace by D2L) for the first day of class.

Students may opt-out of purchasing the First Day® digital course materials; however, students are still responsible for purchasing course materials and completing all assigned work.

When you opt-out, it means you do not want the automatic charge for your course materials applied to your student account and you will no longer have access to First Day® digital course materials.
