No. Because students who study abroad are studying at partnering institutions that have non-Regis faculty, staff, course offerings, course schedules and policies, it is not possible for Regis to offer the benefits of the Ranger Ready Program during a student's semester studying abroad. During study abroad, students are responsible for paying the cost of their textbooks. When students return to Regis from studying abroad, they can take advantage of their Ranger Ready Program benefits.
Professors/departments are responsible for notifying the bookstore by term-specific deadlines of materials needed for all classes. Only materials identified by your professor as “required” are included as part of the program. All “recommended” materials will be available for purchase at the Ranger Station and regisstore.com.
All physical books must be returned to the Ranger Station Bookstore during finals week of the term you are registered for.
- The final deadline to turn in your textbooks is the Friday of finals week of the term you are registered for. Keep in mind, you can return your physical books any day before the deadline.
- If you wish to keep a book, or if a book is lost or damaged, you may purchase it at the Ranger Station Bookstore at any time throughout the semester by paying an additional cost.
- Unreturned materials will be cause for charges and holds applied to your Regis student account.
After the semester is complete, all physical course materials and textbooks must be returned to the Book Depot. However, if you wish to keep a book, or if a book is lost or damaged, you may convert it from a Ranger Ready rental to a purchase at the Ranger Station Bookstore at any time throughout the semester by paying an additional cost.
As of the 2025 Fall Semester, the Ranger Ready program is for all Traditional Undergraduate courses and students. If you are a graduate student registered for an undergraduate class, you may be eligible to take advantage of the benefits of the Ranger Ready program. Please inquire at bookstore@regis.edu or call 303.458.4150 so we can assist you.
