WebAssign's powerful online instructional tools are available to recognized educational institutions at an affordable price. WebAssign is free for instructors, and the access fee for students is based on one or more factors: the type of institution (high school or higher education), the course length (single term or multiterm), and the textbook chosen.

Upgraded Content
Several publishers offer textbooks with augmented online content including tutorials, simulations, and eBooks. Prices vary by publisher and textbook.
To find out the specific online pricing for your textbook, please visit our Textbook Collection and search for your text by author or title.
Access is purchased using access codes, which are available online, in your bookstore, or through your publisher representative, bundled with your textbook. Most colleges and universities require students to pay WebAssign access fees, but institutions can pay the fees in bulk. Contact WebAssign for more information.
Secondary Education
Access fees for secondary schools cover the entire academic year or two-semester block. In most cases, the school pays the student fees. Our Finding Funds page has helpful tips for raising money to cover WebAssign access fees.
