New textbooks that are damaged, contain names, underlining, or marking of any kind will be valued at used book price. Visa, MasterCard, and Discover Card returns will be credited back to the card account.  You MUST bring in the card used to purchase the books in order to receive a refund.

All items must be returned in-person. If for some reason you cannot come to the bookstore and decide to ship your items, you will be responsible for all shipping costs.

Please keep your sales receipt!
No returns will be made without it!

Do not mark in your books until:

• You have gone to class and are certain they are the correct text
• You are certain that you will not change classes

All Textbooks that are sold with online/student access codes must be returned with code unopened.

Quick studies and special orders CANNOT be returned. Trade books and reference books may be returned with receipt within one week of receipt date as long as they are not damaged or written in. Other merchandise in new condition (excluding textbooks, school supplies, art supplies, clothing & book bags), may be returned with receipt within two weeks of receipt date.

Textbook return requests, for a withdraw from a course after the return date, will be considered only when justified by extenuating circumstances such as illness, job changes, accident, death or illness in immediate family which prevent continued attendance in the class.

You must file an appeal with the Student Accounting Office for your tuition refund. Once the appeal is reviewed, you will receive a letter regarding the outcome of your appeal. If the letter states you received a tuition refund, the Bookstore will give you a refund on textbooks that are in usable condition and are being used in the current semester. If you receive a letter of credit, you will be issued a gift card to be used in the Bookstore for all textbooks that are in usable condition and are being used in the current semester.

No textbook will be considered for return or credit without your receipt. In order to obtain your credit or refund, you have two weeks from the date of the letter to return your books to the Bookstore. If a refund is given in the Bookstore, it will be returned to you in the same form as purchased (cash, credit card, grant, or scholarship).
