TEXTBOOKS (Updated): It seemed like people found this useful, & more people messaged me some good tips to add on so this should now be a pretty complete reference. Please comment with any positive/negative experiences or additional tips so I wont have to repost it again : **greatstudentdeals (searches all sites at once) Very helpful **textbooksearch.weebly (searches all sites at once) *Amazon: BEST MARKETPLACE SITE.

(condition usually better than stated) amazon/gp/search/ref=as_li_qf_sp_sr_il_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&index=aps&keywords=textbook&linkCode=as2&tag=schtoudc-20 **If you arent already, join Amazon Student Prime using our .edu email.

ALL of the above sites seem offer renting options as well, but these sites specialize in it: *Chegg: Most popular renting site. Can also get step by step answers to problems or tutoring 2014books.weebly/chegg.html *Skyo Type in the class and section and it tells you all the books you need. greatstudentdeals/skyo.html *BookRenter: My brother used them a lot last year and said they were good tinyurl/BookRenter14 RANDOM ADVISE: *Future semesters, once you register for classes email those Profesors asking what books you will actually need. That way you dont buy books you never use & can buy the cheap used ones before they are all sold. *Search sites like coursesmart, epubbud, and just google book title .pdf to try and find free/cheap electronic downloads. *International editions: most people say they havent found them to be any different than USA editions and are considerably cheaper. *Older editions: typically safe going back 1 or 2 editions without massive differences. A lot cheaper but I am going to talk to professors to make sure they are okay with that *Best option is find someone who took class last semester and get their book (not sure how we can do that as freshman...) *Send a blank email to UniversityTextbookDeals@gmail & instantly receive list of coupon codes *Also the library has copies of all required textbooks, can just borrow for free if you only need it a few times : ) *Random: UBER has current deal for $30 free credit using promo code: uberRideFree2015
