Beginning fall 2023, Lehigh will be piloting a new course materials program, Learning Unlimited, that will reduce the cost of course materials for undergraduate students and ensure they have all their materials across all courses prior to the first day of class. This is a three-year pilot program expected to reduce the cost of course materials by approximately 50%. A student should plan allowance to handle personal and travel expenses.
