WCU Textbooks & Curricular Materials

To place an order with the University Virtual Bookstore, you will need:

• Term [Start date of the course(s)]
• School Location
• Course ID number(s)

Courses are typically listed 3-4 weeks before your class start date.

To order your books go to the University Virtual Bookstore and click Let's Get Started in the center of the page.

In the columns working across, select your Term from the drop down, your Site Location, and your Course ID. 

The next screen will list the course materials. Simply add your selected items to your cart and proceed to check-out.  

What is the difference between Required, Required/Previous Purchase, and Optional books?

• Required: You will need this item for your course work.
• Required/Previous Purchase: These items are required for your course but were also required for a course that you may have previously taken. If you have already purchased the items for another course and still have it, you're all set - you don't need to buy another copy.
• Optional: These items may be helpful to your course work but are not required for the course.

Can I buy my books elsewhere?

If you want to use a Student Financial Aid voucher as a form of payment, you must purchase your textbook(s) from the University Virtual Bookstore.

If you are using an alternative payment method, you may purchase from other sites, however, be sure you select the correct title, author, edition, and ISBN that matches the required materials listed in your course syllabus.
