Campus Textbook Access Program

Get Your Course textbooks the Easy Way with CTAP

At UHV, we know getting your textbooks and course textbooks can be a hassle, not to mention expensive. That’s why we’re part of the Course Textbook Access Program (CTAP), a convenient and affordable way to make sure you’re ready for class from day one.

Here’s how it works: You’ll automatically get access to all your required textbooks, whether digital or physical, at the lowest possible price. No searching, no stress. Everything you need will either show up in your Canvas or be ready for pickup or delivery before classes start.

CTAP is built to save you time and money. Follett, the company that runs our campus store, works directly with publishers to get you the best deals and make sure every required item is covered.

Not interested? No problem. You can choose to opt out each semester with no penalty. Just remember, if you opt out, you’ll need to track down and pay for your textbooks on your own.
