(physical textbook + ITS access card).

Frequently Asked Questions
What if I am not ready to decide on which
purchase option?
Go ahead and register at www.aplia.com. You will
be let into the course for three weeks before
payment is due.
If I order a bundle through the iChapters
site, I will be without a text for a few
days while it is being shipped to me.
What do I do?
Go ahead and register at Aplia. The digital text is
embedded in the ITS and you have a three week
grace period.
Frequently Asked Questions
If I want a physical text, can I buy a
used book?
Sure, but remember, the Aplia ITS is required
and the cheapest possible price for it is $70.
You would have to find an awfully cheap
used book to beat the bundle price.
Can my friends and I share an ITS?
No. When you register at Aplia, your ITS links
the results of the graded assignments only to
the person who registered.
Frequently Asked Questions
What if I opt for the Aplia ITS only and
then later in the semester decide I want
a physical book as well?
No Problem. Once you purchase an ITS, you
have the option of going to the Aplia site
later on and purchasing a physical text at a
discount ($50 plus shipping $7).
