The “Pirates Book Pack” program covers required textbooks and course materials for CVCC classes. The program ensures students will receive required course materials before the first day of class, and the cost, which is provided at a discount rate, is included in the student’s tuition or as a course charge for the student’s course. The program requires no direct out-of-pocket expense for students. Students will be emailed information approximately one month prior to the start of classes each semester. Although not recommended, students may opt out of the program. Students who opt out are responsible for purchasing required course materials at the College Bookstore managed by Barnes and Noble across the street from the Campus Safety Kiosk. Hours of operation are posted.
