To register:
- On the home page of this site, click the Student button under "Register."
- Enter the Course ID provided to you by your instructor and click Next. If you don't have a Course ID yet, contact your instructor.
- First, check the information on the right side of the page to ensure you are registering for the correct course. If not, click Enter a different Course ID.
- Next, you will sign in or create an account:
- You already have a Pearson account if you have used one of our online products before. Enter your username and password and click Sign In.
- If you think you have a Pearson account, but can't remember your sign-in information, click Forgot your username or password? We will send you an email, so we suggest checking your account information before you begin your course registration.
- If you don't have an account, click Create. You will create a username and password and add your contact information. Read and accept the license agreement. You can also choose to help improve Pearson products and learn about new offers.
Click Create an Account. You now have a Pearson account! The username and password you just created can be used for all your Pearson online products.
- Pay for access to your instructor's online course:
- If you already bought your access code, either bundled with your textbook or as an access code kit sold individually, click Access Code. Enter your access code, one word in each box, and click Finish.
- To use a credit card or PayPal instead of an access code, click the button for the access you want.
Note: Some courses provide the option to purchase with or without the eText. The integrated eText is a very powerful, flexible tool and, though you can buy the eText later, it costs less to buy the course content + eText up front.
Next, enter billing and payment information, then review and submit your order.
- If you're waiting for financial aid, click Get temporary access without payment for 17 days, which is near the bottom of the Payment Options page.
Click Yes when a message appears asking if you are sure you want temporary access. You will receive an email with payment instructions.
Note: To stay in your course, use an access code, credit card, or PayPal before the temporary access ends. If you don't pay within 17 days, you will lose access to your instructor's online course and may miss deadlines or important notices from your instructor. Once you pay for full access, you are reconnected to coursework already completed.
- You will receive a confirmation page with your account and course information. Click Go to Your Course to start your work.
