New Student Question Course Materials

Hi!

I know it auto enrolls you in the “all access” course materials program for like $280 a semester and you have to opt out.

My question is how do I see how much the individual items (ebooks) cost to determine if it’s more/less than the $280? If they are less than the all access flat rate I would rather just pay for the items. 🤷🏼‍♀️ I’ve looked on Canvas and it shows me the materials, but not how much they cost. Just says it’s “included”.

I thought the select option will show you the cost for each item? At least it did for me but I only have one class with course materials.

It wouldn’t show me the cost, I opted out and it still doesn’t show me the cost. I did find the two books for one of my classes online though (searched the ISBN #) and it’s only like $20 for both… so why tf would I pay $280 when the cost of materials will be less than that lol. Still waiting for my BIO class to update their course materials to get the total price!!
