About CTAP
The Course Materials Access Program (CTAP) takes the hassle out of getting course materials by providing students with convenient access to their required materials for the lowest price available. This course materials affordability program aims to ensure students arrive to class prepared, do not need to stress about getting their required materials, and receive affordable prices. Your campus has an opt out model and includes both digital and physical required materials.
Following successful CTAP pilots, University of Houston-Clear Lake is now expanding the program to be campus-wide and include all courses, faculty, and students. Follett – Clear Lake's campus store provider – works on behalf of the campus to negotiate required material prices with publishers down to the lowest possible price. Follett then works with the campus store to ensure all required digital materials appear in the student's Canvas and all required physical materials are prepared for pickup or shipping by the first day of class, as applicable.
All students are automatically enrolled in the program, and students who are not interested in the material savings can opt out of the program each term with no penalty. Students who opt-out of the program are responsible for finding and purchasing their own required materials.
