Course Materials for Undergraduate Classes

At UMGC, you can complete most undergraduate degrees without purchasing textbooks, thanks to electronic resources that are available at no cost, are immediately available through your online classroom, and are always up to date.

Depending on the course, these open educational resources may include electronic textbooks, lectures, websites, and selected documents and media. Program directors and faculty members have customized these materials to be more relevant to your course and to include the latest industry information.

Some courses do require the use of textbooks, specific software, or content that cannot be accessed for free. When you register for a course, check the required course materials listed in the  to determine whether you will need to purchase any course materials. These materials are not included on your student account or added with your tuition and fees and must be paid out of pocket.

Course Materials for Graduate Classes

Many of our graduate courses do not require you to pay for textbooks. We've replaced textbooks with no-cost electronic resources for these courses that are tailored to each course and are immediately available through your online classroom. However, some graduate courses require the use of course materials that you will need to purchase. As with the undergraduate classes, these materials are not included on your student account or added with your tuition and fees and must be paid out of pocket.
