WARRIORREADY is a textbook and class material rental option that simplifies your start of semester, lowers the cost of materials, and ensures you have access to all required course materials on or before the first day of class. With WARRIORREADY, physical textbooks are conveniently packaged and ready for students on a rental basis, and access to digital material is directly within the A&M-Central Texas Canvas system. At the end of the term, you'll receive email reminders to return rented physical course materials to the bookstore.

And bext of all, WARRIORREADY costs just $24 per semester hour, typically saving students between 35% and 50% of required textbook and materials cost.

The program provides all required textbooks, lab manuals, access codes and digital textbook versions to eligible students.
