FHU Inclusive Access Program
Freed-Hardeman University's Inclusive Access program is designed to provide convenient, affordable access to required course materials for all students. This innovative program allows students to access digital course materials through Canvas on the first day of class, ensuring they have the resources they need to succeed at a reduced cost! |
The program starts with faculty members selecting the course materials for their courses. Once the materials are selected, FHU Textbooks partners with publishers or vendors to negotiate a discounted price. When a student registers for a class that utilizes the IA program, the materials are made available to students before or on the first day of class. These materials are billed directly to the student accounts, making it easy, affordable, and efficient for students and faculty to access essential learning resources. |
