Bookstore Credit FAQs:

How does the charging process work?

If purchasing books in person, you must present your photo ID to staff in the bookstore, then choose your textbooks and supplies. Follett stores your approved credit amount in their database, so you can return multiple times to purchase books and supplies, until your credit is used up. The purchases you make  will be billed to your student account by the 6th week of the semester.

You can use your bookstore credit to purchase books on-line through the SUNY Orange bookstore website:

What items can I charge at the Bookstore?

Purchases made with a financial aid credit can be for educationally related materials. This includes: textbooks, supplies, and other items needed for your program of study.
*Please Note: You should purchase your required textbooks prior to purchasing any electronic devices.

What is the maximum book voucher that I can receive?

The maximum financial aid book credit awarded is $1,000. Your e-mail will contain the amount you have available to spend. The amount will be equal to your financial aid credit, up to a maximum of $1,000. No exceptions will be made to this limit.

I filed a FAFSA, why don't I see any financial aid on my student account statement?

It takes 5 to 10 business days before the college receives the information from your successfully filed FAFSA. Once the college receives this information, you need to accept your awards and/or complete any missing documentation. Only then will financial aid be used to reduce your payment..

My Financial Aid does not cover my entire Student Account Statement. What do I do?

If your financial aid does not cover the full amount you owe you can either pay the balance by joining the Monthly Payment plan or by cash, check or credit card. 

My payment arrangement deadline if tomorrow and I filed my FAFSA today. Will I be dropped from my courses?

 

Courses are subject to being dropped even if you anticipate using Financial Aid to cover your Student Account Statement, it takes 5 to 10 business days before the college receives your Financial Aid information from the successfully completed FAFSA. You are advised to make alternative payment arrangements. Please refer to the payment options available, which include a monthly payment plan. 

If I don't make any payment arrangements by my deadline, will all my classes be dropped?
