Textbook List

Interested in finding a list of textbooks various grad programs use. For instance, research shows me there are regional colleges are using intro level textbooks in their grad programs, such as "Essentials of Investments" vs  "Investments", or "Fundamentals of Futures and Options Markets" vs "Options, Futures, and Other Derivatives". I suspect review of the materials used in a program should be included in your decision making, but am having trouble determining what textbooks or even case projects one program includes vs another. Any thoughts?
