Obtaining Texts and Materials
Course materials including textbooks are available through several sources. Textbooks may be purchased from any source the student desires, but students should also be aware that many non-medical booksellers may have to special order the texts and then ship them to people placing their orders. If a company does not currently stock the required texts, and does not have extensive experience with shipping medical books, it can take weeks or months before students receive the required materials, in some cases too late to successfully complete their classes. Be careful that you order your books in time to receive them when class begins. Keep all of your order information for reference if an order is delayed.
If you are on financial aid and need to have text materials charged to your financial aid account, please contact our office and speak to the program coordinator, Sherry Hair at the program office (888-313-3838). She can help you with the process to order from the bookstore, but time can be a factor so contact her as soon as possible.
Here are a few recommendations as sites for ordering texts:
Elsevier
Elsevier books can be ordered directly from the publisher. Note that only the Elsevier books can be ordered through them. Please click on the link:
Cengage Learning
You may also order some of the books through Cengage Learning. Here are links to those specific books.
ichapters.com
With ichapters.com you have the ability to download chapters of books as well as order print books.
If your textbook lists another publisher, there are various ways to order text material online using the ISBN number through Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Textbooks.com….Be sure to review the book return policy and have the shipping tracked once ordered.
