Getting your books and supplies has just gotten easier! All registered students may now charge Bookstore purchases to their student account. Students will need to have their ID cards to process these transactions since they are swiped just like a credit card. See the FAQ listing below for further information or contact the Bookstore.

FAQ:

1. What if I haven’t gotten my ID card yet? For Freshman or Transfer student customers who haven’t been issued an ID yet, the Bookstore can often process charges with another picture ID and student number. In January, however, this flexibility may not be possible due to the campus shutdown and limited access to the necessary data.

NOTE: After the drop-add period all students must have their cards to make purchases. Please report lost or stolen cards immediately to the Registrar’s Office.

2. Are there any limitations on types of purchases? No.

3. Do I still need my receipt for returns? Yes, although there is a record of your purchases it is not available at the cash register. Returned items are credited back to your account.

4. What if I have questions about my statement? Your monthly statement from Business Services will list your purchases as “Bookstore Charges.” Please save your receipts if you wish to verify your charges each month. If for some reason you think they don’t balance, please contact the Bookstore.

5. Does using my card affect my Financial Aid award? No, any extra Financial Aid money on your account will be applied to Bookstore charges just like any other charge on your account. You may wish to leave award money on your account if you plan to use your Bookstore charge.
