How much can students save on textbooks through rental programs?
Students can generally rent a textbook for approximately one-third the cost of a new text; however, the savings may not be as great as expected, since it’s difficult to account for all of the various factors that are involved. For example, some students already opt for used books or sell their books to realize greater savings. In some cases, students using rental programs might still be required to purchase supplementary, consumable materials, which can add to baseline costs.
