Book Charges and Title IV Financial Aid Refunds
Students whose total financial aid is greater than the cost of tuition and fees may be entitled to a refund of the excess aid. Excess financial aid may be used to charge required books to the student account.
Key information:
· You must attend all classes before your aid can be disbursed.
· Refunds are generally issued the third week after classes begin. Students who are enrolled in late start terms will not receive a refund until after late sessions have started and attendance is verified for all classes.
· Students must do a Title IV authorization to allow financial aid to be used for books.
· Books may be charged the week before and during the first two weeks of classes. JSCC Campus Bookstore (Follett) will email instructions the week before classes begin.
· Book charges are only available through the Campus Bookstore (in store or online).
· Refund amounts are reduced by the charged book costs.
· This authorization is necessary only one time per academic year.
