Eagle Access Course Materials Program

The Eagle Access Course Materials Program enables students to save time and money by offering access to their required course materials at a reduced cost. Through a partnership between AU and Follett – AU’s Campus Store operator – students can receive digital materials automatically via Canvas and physical materials prepared and ready for pick-up at the Campus Store. The program ensures that all AU students have their required materials on or before the first day of class. 

All students on campus and online (except study abroad, doctoral, and intersession students) are enrolled automatically in the program when they register for courses. However, you have the flexibility to opt out of the program easily by the add/drop deadline each semester.

Pricing

The program is designed to save students up to 60 percent off retail prices on required course materials.
