How do I figure out which textbooks to get, or do I need to wait until classes have already started? Also, I have already checked UTdirect, and none of my books are on there yet.
We were told at the textbook breakout session at Freshman orientation that textbooks are posted August 1. They also mentioned a lot of students find that after the first class day professors tell them which books they really need. IF you purchase your books at the Co-Op on Guadalupe they’ll take back whatever books you don’t need in the first week I believe.
My son who is a senior at UT said to wait. A lot of things he was told to buy, they never used. He bought a lot on line or electronically.
