Inclusive Access Program

Inclusive Access

The Inclusive Access program has two main goals:

  • Reducing the cost of course materials
  • Improving educational outcomes for students

How it works for students:

  • Access to content distributed via email (to my.smccd.edu email address) or WebSMART.
  • Students pays for access at time of registration or after the first day of instruction.
  • If student drops class, Inclusive Access charges are refunded.
  • If opting out, students will need to submit their request via an opt out form. Click Here to Opt Out of Inclusive Access for your course at College of San Mateo.  Opt Outs will be processed during the 3rd week of the semester.
  • In most cases, print books will be available for students at a discount after add/drop date for the semester the Inclusive Access was purchased.
