In order for UI to be in compliance with the Higher Education Opportunity Act (HEOA), all textbooks should be ordered for the fall semester before Early Registration begins.

Please do the best you can to have your books ordered as soon as possible.

• Early Registration for Fall 2022 begins on Monday, April 11.
• Early ordering saves students money—substantial amounts—and this is the central reason that the HEO Act regarding textbooks was enacted.

An exception to the above deadline is made in the following circumstances:

• If an instructor has not yet been hired.
• If the instructor has not yet been assigned to a course.
• If the course is new and still under development.
• If the textbook is new and still under development.
• If an exception has been made, please add this information to the Offerings Planning so that the course is removed from the Missing Textbook Report sent by the Registrar.
• This report is sent to my office and to yours until your unit is in compliance. (To view this report, visit MAUI>Reports>Registrar>Courses Missing Textbooks.)
• Courses with the 0IND (Independent Study) identifier are excluded from this request.
• Please see the Registrar’s website for help  with textbook ordering.

Thank you for helping our students by ordering textbooks as soon as possible.
