Immediate Access makes getting your course materials simple, affordable, and convenient. Through a partnership between Sheridan and your professor, your required digital course materials are automatically available in your course page on SLATE on the first day of class. There’s no need to search for your textbook, purchase it separately, or worry about finding the right access code—it’s ready when you are.
Sheridan offers Immediate Access to help reduce the cost and confusion often associated with purchasing course materials. By negotiating directly with publishers, our vendor partner secures lower prices, helping you save money compared with purchasing digital materials on your own. The program also gives you flexibility: you can opt-in or opt-out at the course level, and if you remain enrolled, the cost is billed directly to your student account and may be covered by financial aid.
Your materials are also designed for flexible access. You can download your digital content to multiple devices and continue reading even when you’re offline—helpful when reliable internet access isn’t always available. Immediate Access puts your course materials within reach from day one, so cost, access, and complicated purchasing don’t have to get in the way of your learning.
