The Park Advocacy Center

The Park Advocacy center is open 24/7

Providing students with a safe space to speak up about their anxieties, hang out with friends, and make use of the advocacy services that D’Youville University provides. It's also where you can come and visit Saint and Maggie during the day!

BookReady Program

The BookReady program was created to help save students money and time. The rate for returning, transfer and graduate students $39.75 per credit hour for Fall 2024-Spring 2025. It doesn’t matter how many books or what the books are, and it doesn’t matter if you’re an undergraduate, graduate, or doctoral student. The total charge will be added to your student account; if you add or drop a class before the add/drop deadline, your account is automatically updated, and your books are adjusted.

  • Students have the opportunity to opt-out of the program at no additional cost to them by the last day of add/drop of each semester without penalty.
