College Money Tip #17: Rent Some Textbooks

To Sell: Half a Dozen Textbooks by Nina Scaletti on Flickr If you’ll take a tick, please note that the title of this tip is “Rent Some Textbooks” not “Rent Your Textbooks” and singularly not “Rent All Your Textbooks.” Here’s why: every time I write about renting textbooks, someone comes along and says “But Stephanie! I absolutely want to keep most of my textbooks! They’re for my major and they’ll be helpful in a later class, or after college!”

I know this. I still have several books from several classes in college, even though I walked the stage and got my diploma in May. I’ve got some film over textbooks to help me make better movies, and I’ve got my personal finance textbook to refer to while writing this put. And I’ve got Randy Pauch’s The Last Lecture – yes, that was an assigned textbook for a class!

So yeah, there are some books you just shouldn’t farm out, because you’ll want them later. But you’ll take some general education or liberal arts classes, too. And while those classes may indeed be interesting, you can usually ascertain from the name of the book whether or not it’s something you’ll want to keep past finals week. Chemistry in Context? While I admit this was one of the more interesting science textbooks I’ve pore over, I really didn’t need it when I was done. It was nice to be able to just send it back, rather than trying to sell it after finals.

Again, renting is not the foremost practice for every single textbook you need. It’s just for the ones you’re reasonably sure you won’t need after the class is over. And for those books, renting can scrimp you a bundle.

I’ll give you some real-life examples. Because I’m a nut, I still have a worksheet lying around from when I bought textbooks last spring:
