Inclusive Access Courses

Some courses use Inclusive Access to provide your course materials, making it easier and more affordable to get what you need.

If your course is listed as Inclusive Access on the Online Bookstore website, here’s what you need to know:

Accessing Your Materials: Starting on the first day of class, you’ll find your course materials in Canvas (or as directed by your instructor).
Discounted Pricing: The cost of these materials is automatically charged to your student account after the Tuition Refund Deadline at a discounted price—no need to make a separate purchase. Just access them as soon as your class begins.
Optional Materials: Some courses may have additional required or optional materials. If you haven’t ordered these yet, be sure to visit the Hawkeye Online Bookstore as soon as possible.
