TEXTBOOKS

The College of Biblical Studies is excited to announce First Day Complete, a program that conveniently provides you access to all of your required course materials on or before the first day of class at no additional cost. The program is included in the cost of tuition.

GET AN EDGE ON ACADEMIC SUCCESS | SAVE MONEY | REDUCE STRESS

How it works:

  • One month before classes start, you will receive an email instructing you to review your courses and provided a mailing address for physical books.
  • When your physical books ship, you will receive an email notification.
  • Electronic books are available starting the first day of class. They will be delivered within MyCourses (Blackboard) and accessible through the Yuzu app.
  • Extra cost not included! Your tuition covers the cost of books and shipping.

We are excited to offer you this convenient, affordable way for getting all your course materials!
