The College is committed to ensuring that every student can participate fully in the curriculum, regardless of financial need. The Movement for Affordable Textbooks (MAT) website highlights a variety of resources – financial, library, departmental, and peer-to-peer – that can help students navigate the costs of textbooks and other materials.
