Book Voucher

Understanding the Book Voucher Process:

1. You must have completed the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and awarded financial aid for the term that you are requesting the book voucher.

2. The book voucher is not an additional source of funding; however it can be offered if your current financial aid exceeds all charges (tuition, fees, etc).

3. Must be registered for the term that the book voucher is being requested.

4. It is not an automatic offer.  The student must make the request (each term) of the Office of Financial Aid (OFA) in order to determine eligibility.

5. The offer and use of the book voucher reduces the amount of the financial aid refund that the student will receive.

6. You must present your UDC student ID in the OFA to request a book voucher and at the bookstore in order to make purchases.

7. You have the option of making purchases with your student ID until the established deadline date.  No purchase can be made after the imposed deadline date.

Or…

You may have all or a portion of your book voucher amount placed on a debit card. The debit card does not expire and can be used to make purchases at the bookstore or online at www.efollet.com.  The issuance of the debit card must be made by the imposed book voucher deadline; however, the debit card will not expire!

Student Responsibilities…

You will be responsible for full payment of your bookstore charges if you become ineligible for financial aid or if your financial aid is reduced and is not sufficient to cover your account balance.

You will be responsible for charges added to your account by the bookstore after financial aid has disbursed to your account and your refund check has been mailed to you.

If a textbook or other item is out of stock and will not be in by the imposed deadline date to use the book voucher, you may prepay using the book voucher or you may wish to have funds transferred to a debit card so that you will be able to make the purchase once the item is in stock.

Failure to pay all charges on your account will prevent you from registering for future courses and a hold will be placed on all your academic records by the Office of Student Accounts for non-payment.
