Learn more about the WarriorREADY program.
Texas A&M University–Central Texas is encouraging students to check their student email. Information will soon be sent via email regarding the WarriorReady program. Students need to follow the email instructions to make the most of this exciting new program that ensures their course materials are ready to go on the first day of class.
WarriorReady is designed to provide students with necessary course materials in an easy and convenient package for a set rental fee. Through WarriorReady, students’ books, workbooks, digital assets, and other course materials are bundled and ready to pick up prior to the first day of class. Online students can have their materials shipped to them.
The program provides a significant savings compared to the cost of purchasing materials. The rental program charges a base fee per credit hour of $24. For a three-hour course, a student will incur a fee of $72 as opposed to possibly paying hundreds to purchase the textbook. The fee is also a flat rate, so the savings increases if a professor adopts multiple sources for the class such as a textbook, workbook, and digital download.
Students will also benefit from increased convenience as the bundles are prepared for them based on their class registration. Once students enroll in courses, the bookstore will take their information and bundle the course materials. Students are notified when their materials are ready.
While students are automatically enrolled in the program, they do have the option to opt out. An opt-out period will be set up prior to each long semester. Students will be notified and can choose to opt out through an on-line portal.
