Big Deals:Taking Coursework Online, No Cost Professional Coaching, and SaaS Down Under


A collaboration between Follett Higher Education and University of Bridgeport (UB) has helped students save more than $1.9 million on textbooks and course materials over the last year. In summer 2023, UB partnered with Follett to manage its bookstore and launch a new Follett Access program that provides students with all their required course materials, textbooks, and supplies for free, with no additional increase in tuition or fees.

"As we embark on another academic year, UB is proud to celebrate the success of our partnership with Follett Higher Education in significantly reducing costs for our students," said UB President Danielle Wilken. "This collaboration underscores our commitment to accessibility and affordability in higher education, ensuring that financial considerations do not hinder our students' academic pursuits. We look forward to continuing this initiative and further enhancing the educational experience for all members of our university community."
