 *Please note that while we make every effort to fulfill the condition of book requested, we do sometimes sell out of used copies. In this case, there is a message on our website when choosing the book condition that states that if a student requests a used copy of a book and none are available, we will substitute it with a new copy.

Using Financial Aid

Financial aid can be used to purchase course materials, school supplies, laptops, and electronics.  

Financial aid becomes available for use in the Campus Store two weeks prior to the start of classes. And is available for a limited time during the beginning of the semester.

Renting Textbooks

●You can still write and highlight in your rental textbook! Just make sure to return your textbook at the end of the semester with no major damage, such as water damage or missing pages.

●Rentals are due back to the bookstore by the Friday of finals week. Giving you access to your materials right through your final exams. 

●Purchasing a rental textbook will require a credit or debit card to be put on file. If you are using a different method of payment to purchase your materials, such as financial aid, this card will not be charged unless the rental is not returned to the bookstore by the due date.

We make it easy to return your rentals at the end of the semester, even if you are not on campus. Just download and print out a flat-fee return shipping label from our website!
