Program Overview
WHAT is Learning Unlimited?
- Learning Unlimited is a course material model that keeps course material costs constant, makes acquiring materials easier, and ensures students have all their materials across all courses prior to the first day of class.
- Learning Unlimited aims to enhance classroom preparedness, retention, convenience, and academic success for undergraduate students.
- Instead of purchasing materials a la carte, the cost is included in tuition as a per semester fee.
- Depending on the semester and course load, some students may not find the program beneficial. Those students may opt out each semester.
- The program provides the faculty-selected and accurate version of all required textbooks, lab manuals, access codes, and digital materials.
- The Lehigh Store will provide each student with a convenient package for physical textbooks and digital materials will be delivered directly to CourseSite.
Lehigh charges a course material fee for each semester, but unlike other fees, students can opt out of Learning Unlimited by the add/drop date at their sole discretion. They can also opt back-in if they change their mind.
The 2026/2027 fees will be:
- Fall Semester 2026: $390
- Spring Semester 2027: $390
If you have questions about your course materials, please contact The Lehigh Store manager, Renee Lutz, at inlulu@lehigh.edu or 610-758-3375.
