NDSU Will Launch An Affordable Course Materials Program This Fall Called “Bison Ready”

FARGO, N.D. (KVRR) — NDSU will be launching an affordable course materials program for its students starting in the fall.

The program known as Bison Ready, will have a fixed semester rate of $325 for undergraduates and $55 for graduate students.

Students will be automatically enrolled and will receive all digital materials, physical materials, and course kits with the program.

It will be up to students to opt in or out of.

“In the past you know when families would come they would know what to budget for tuition and they would know what to budget for housing. This is actually going to give them the ability to know the max cost at the NDSU bookstore is going to be $325 or $55 for the semester. I can budget off of that I know what my expenses are going to be, so that’s the upper tier of what they will pay,” said Kim Anvinson, Director of NDSU Bookstore.

Both staff and students on campus have said they are looking forward to this program.
