University of Arkansas - Pulaski Technical College Day One Access Program
What Does It Mean to Opt Out?
Opting out removes the Day One Access charge from your student account and revokes your digital access in Blackboard. If you opt out, you are responsible for obtaining required course materials on your own before assignments are due.

- You may opt back in up to the add/drop date. After that time, the discounted price is not available.
