The Ivy+ Textbook fee is assessed based on the number of credit hours you are taking over the 16-week semester. You are not charged by individual courses or for specific textbooks or materials. This is designed to balance the total cost of your required textbooks and courseware across your semester and overall academic career and could mean that you have multiple required textbooks for some courses and none for others. Even if your individual course does not require textbooks or materials, you will continue to see savings on the overall costs of your textbooks and courseware during your time at Ivy Tech.
