In order to provide better options and services for students, Roberts Wesleyan University and Northeastern Seminary have changed the bookstore vendor to Slingshot. Slingshot is an EdTech company that provides all necessary course materials for each program. New seminary students are defaulted to rent physical and digital textbooks. To opt out or make different textbook selections, follow the steps below. After registering for classes, textbooks will be automatically shipped or emailed to new students if no action is taken.
You will want to log in to your Student Slingshot account by using your RWU/NES email address credentials to access your account (the same username and password you use to access your email, Moodle course sites, and Self-Service).
Student Login - Find Your School: type Roberts and do a search:
Click on the Roberts logo. It will redirect you to the Roberts Wesleyan University Campus Store. Click on the LOGIN button (top right corner) to access your account.
Select Textbook Preference
Select My Account Preferences (orange button)
The Default Preference is Rent, however, you have five options to choose from:
- Rent
- Buy Used
- Buy New
- Digital
- Opt-Out
If you choose options 1 to 4, you will be billed for books from your student account and a box of books (or digital upload) will be sent to you automatically, based on the courses you are registered for.
5. Opt-Out - If you do not want to be enrolled in this program, you must OPT-OUT immediately to avoid having books shipped to you automatically. If you Opt-Out, you are free to purchase your books from any place (Half Books, Alibris, Amazon, Christian Book Distributors) you choose, but you will need to pay for your books on your own and not through your student account.
