Course Booklist 2018–2019

Course Booklist 2018?2019

The following grids list all books required for Boston University Academy courses. The books are sorted by subject and then grade level with the summer reading assignments shaded in gray. Students enrolled in a University course should consult the BU bookstore listings (), BU Student Link (), or the specific course syllabus for required texts. Students are asked to have all books for the first day of classes. They should buy the specified edition, as well as noting when used or e-books are prohibited.

Course Book Purchasing Students are welcome to buy their course books from whichever vendor they prefer; however, BUA has partnered with Barnes & Nobles @ Boston University as a way to streamline the ordering process for families.

Barnes & Nobles @ Boston University 660 Beacon Street, 5th Floor (in Kenmore Square) Books will be available in early August, as the bookstore does not stock course books more than one month in advance of the next semester. Questions may be directed to Scott Chandler 617-236-7449 or schandlr@bu.edu.

Books for BUA courses can be found by selecting `BUA' from the department dropdown list from the `Find Textbooks' page. BU course numbers and sections can be found on Student Link.

Instructions for accessing financial aid book grants are available at current-parents.
