If you are considering opting out of the NTC Undergrad Bundle, the Tulane bookstore recommends that you first calculate the possible level of savings on textbooks and course materials very closely. Many students have opted out then opted back in once they realized their level of savings.
And remember: if you opt-out, you will have to pay for full retail costs for digital materials, separately. If you don’t return your books at the end of the semester, you may be charged full retail costs and the bundle fee.
