Book Advances
The Campus Card is needed for the book advance program. Book Advances are only allowed to be used at the Bristol bookstore ( in person or online). Book advances give students the opportunity to use some of their financial aid funds in advance of the first disbursement to purchase course materials, supplies and technology (i.e. computer) at the Bristol Bookstore. To be eligible for a book advance, you will need to have a complete financial aid file, have received a financial aid award letter, and have a pending credit balance on your bill. A book advance is not a grant and is not in addition to your financial aid award package.
There are no cash refunds on items returned that were bought with a book advance. Also, you don’t need to spend your entire book advance. All book advance charges are added to your tuition bill. If your eligibility changes and/or your financial aid award is not enough to cover the book advance charges, you are responsible for repaying the charge. Also, if you drop a class or fully withdraw from Bristol Community College and used the book advance, you may be responsible to pay back all or part of the book advance.
To use your book advance you will need to have your campus card with you at the time
of purchase.
Eligibility
The book advance amount is based on enrollment level, authorized financial aid, and charges. The maximum value is listed below:
- $1,300 for full-time students (12 or more credits)
- $1,100 for 3/4-time students (9-11 credits)
- $900 for 1/2-time students (6-8 credits)
- $700 for 1/4 time students (less than 6 credits)
A student may meet the eligibility requirements, but not be eligible for the maximum
value. An example would be a full-time student with a $200 pending credit balance. Although
the full-time limit is $800, the student will be eligible for only a $200 book advance.
Exchanges and Returns
Book exchanges and refunds can be made in store with the original receipt within the
bookstores return policy. Please stop in store for additional information at the beginning
of each semester. If you drop a course during Bristol’s add/drop period, you can return
your books to the bookstore for a refund.
In addition, if you purchase books from sellers other than Follett, you may have difficulty
returning if the required book changes or if the course is canceled. Don't waste time
or money. Buy your books with confidence from the Bristol campus bookstore.
