Student DDA Information


DDA courses are designated DDA both on the college class schedule and on the bookstore website.

If you are taking a DDA course:

  • You have already been charged for the materials when you registered.
  • Since DDA materials are billed to your student account, these charges are eligible for interest-free payment plans.
  • You will get a "Welcome to DDA" email to your student email account from us before classes start indicating what materials are required for your class.
  • You may opt out of the materials by the opt-out date listed in the "Welcome to DDA" email.

DDA materials may be either courseware or eTexts.

Courseware is academic software (Sage Vantage, McGraw Hill Connect, Cengage WebAssign, etc.) necessary for succesful completion of a course. Please use your student email when registering for courseware.

eTexts are provided by VitalSource. Please use your student email when registering for VitalSource Bookshelf. Access the link on the left for YouTube videos on topics like:
