Books
Books are charged separately from your tuition and fees. Follett's bookstore is a separate entity from IPFW, so financial aid cannot always readily pay toward your books prior to the start of classes. However, the Financial Aid office, the Bursar’s office, and the bookstore developed a program to help students get their books prior to the start of classes. The Bookstore Credit is set up by the student when the student accepts their awards on my.IPFW. There are some key points to remember concerning the Bookstore Credit:
- Even if you check that you want the credit, not all students are eligible for it. To be eligible for the credit, you must have enough financial aid to cover your full tuition & fees, the full amount of your housing (if applicable), and have money left over to use toward the credit.
- Changing enrollment may change your aid and thus change your eligibility for the bookstore credit.
- The amount you use for the credit will be taken from your refund check.
- There is a limit on how much you can use for the credit. That limit is currently $650 a semester unless you print us a copy of the books you need to buy that shows the total amount you need.
- There is also a limit on when you can use the bookstore credit. Usually this time limit is about three weeks prior to the week before classes begin.
- i.e., if classes begin on August 24, the week before classes will be August 17-24. This means the credit would end on August 14 (the Friday prior to the week before classes).
- The time limit will be posted online when a student accepts the bookstore credit.
