What is Inclusive Access and who can help me?

Inclusive Access is a program that provides integration of digital textbooks and homework platforms directly into courses through the learning management system at a reduced cost to students – with no access code or separate textbook purchase required. Students are initially charged a course fee with their tuition costs, which provides each student access to all course materials on Day 1 of class. With Inclusive Access, students could save up to $221 for their class materials, depending on the participating course. Working directly with the bookstore, students are able to opt out of the program and purchase course materials in a different format (if they prefer)*. 

*Students who choose to opt out will receive a refund for the course fee. If opting out of Inclusive Access, students will also forego the cost savings and will be responsible for purchasing the course materials separately. The refunded course fee will not be enough to purchase the same access when purchased separately.

The Northwood University Bookstore will contact you about opt-out options. In the meantime, if you have any questions about that process or Inclusive Access in general, please reach out to the bookstore at bookstore@northwood.edu.

Course material integration is managed collaboratively by instructors and the Center for Excellence (CFE). Students do not need to take any extra steps to prepare for class unless they opt to purchase materials independently. Instructors will furnish further details in the course shell or address this during the initial class session, explaining how to access the text and homework platform. For inquiries, please contact your professor and include the CFE at cfe@northwood.edu.

 **If you are a military student, the decision on whether or not to opt-out of the Inclusive Access program may be impacted by your military status. Please contact your advisor as soon as possible to discuss which option is best for you.
