The Union College Bookstore can provide a variety of different options to make your classes more affordable.
By providing adoptions as early as possible, the bookstore can find the most cost-effective materials for your classes. This also allows us to maximize the amount of materials we buy back from students, allowing our students access to a more robust used book market.
| Term | Date to submit orders |
|---|---|
| Fall | April 15 |
| Winter | October 15 |
| Spring | February 1 |
Because Union is a trimester school, it has often been late to the market placing orders for used books because most schools place their orders much earlier than we do. By providing your adoptions early, the bookstore can source those less expensive titles and pass that savings on to our students.
Exploring new versus older editions can help as you plan your courses. Please consult with the bookstore if you are considering using an old edition. They can advise on availability, rental, and digital editions that may expand your options.
Inclusive Access may be a way to lower costs. Contact the bookstore for more information.
