SAU Tech Bookstore

SAU Tech has partnered with the SAU Tech Bookstore to offer an affordable option for course material.

*Most classes have course material included in the Bookstore’s rental program.

Renting course material can be more affordable than purchasing.

Some course material is delivered electronically and is usually half price for RENTAL vs. Purchase.

*Tuition is paid in the business office. One of the fees, paid with tuition by Pell, some scholarships, loans, or personal funds, is for BOOK RENTALS.

Book RENTAL charge $33 per credit hour

Example - A 3-hour class is charged $33 x 3 = $99 for the book rental. Charges are added to the student account when the student enrolls in the class.

*Specific programs such as Aviation Maintenance, Nursing, Cosmetology, NDT, Sonography, HVAC, and Welding are excluded from the Rental Program, requiring purchase of this course material. These textbooks are NOT in the rental program, but are available to PURCHASE in the bookstore with Pell, some scholarships, loans, or personal funds to serve as payment for this course material.

A copy of student schedule is helpful when visiting the bookstore to rent or purchase course material. Student schedules can be viewed electronically in MyLaunchPad under the Campus Connect tab. Students must be logged in to MyLaunchPad to access Campus Connect.

Textbook Rentals or Purchases are usually available for pick up at the bookstore two weeks before classes begin.

We accept book orders via email, if textbooks are to be shipped to the student. We charge $15 for shipping any textbooks and require a form of payment before the shipment is sent.

Opting out of the textbook rental program

Students may opt-out of the Rental program by filling out the form here. The opt-out option is for all course material for the current semester and must be resubmitted each semester. The last day to opt-out of the program is the payment due date for the semester.

Please note: If you are unsure whether opting out is best for you, contact the bookstore. For courses requiring eBooks, renting has proven to be more affordable rather than purchasing.
