Other Tutoring Options

The following services are based in Lubbock but accessible to all students online:

Textbook Information

Studying at a U.S. university in Costa Rica can be complicated when it comes to learning materials. To make it easier, our CR staff created a detailed guide to finding the exact books required for courses on campus.

Most books can be purchased or rented as e-textbooks. Physical books, as well as other materials, can take time to get here. Consult the guide as soon as you and your advisor decide which classes you’ll be enrolling in.

Newly Admitted Students

Getting oriented and enrolled for the first time at a major U.S. university requires some patience. Be assured that we will help you at every step. Newly admitted students receive personal attention to make sure they take any required pre-enrollment exams and attend Red Raider Orientation. To make the most of this attention, keep an eye on your inbox!

Faculty Corner

Faculty members find resources at this lib guide. The guide, updated as needed by Costa Rica-based faculty and staff, includes information about faculty access to the library, Blackboard, etc.
