Summer 2008 Book Store Credits


Books are a very big and expensive part of college life. Fortunately, financial aid can be used to pay for books and supplies. Students can get a book store credits in the financial aid office to buy books and supplies in our MCC Bookstore.

How to get a book store credit

To obtain a book credit you must:

1.    complete the entire financial aid application process

2.    submit all required documents to the College

3.    have more than enough financial aid to cover your bill

If you apply for Financial Aid early enough and are eligible for enough aid, the College will establish a "book credit" in the bookstore.

Summer book credits be availability

Book Credits will be available on Monday, May 19, 2008.

Book Store Credits Amount:

The amount of the book credit is based on:

1.    the number of credit hours a student is taking

2.    the amount of financial aid a student is receiving

Typically, you may receive $40.00 per class credit to buy books

If you do not use all of your available book credit, the remaining amount will be mailed to you after the College confirms your attendance to classes.

Book credit increase
