  2. Refunds will be issued in the same form as payment was made.
  3. All returns and exchanges must be brought to the Bookstore Customer Service desk.

Textbooks (Required)

  1. Refunds can only be made during the two weeks following the start of the semester (one week for summer and Sprint sessions).

No refunds will be issued after that date.
  2. Books sold in shrink-wrap must be returned in original shrink-wrap.
  3. To receive a full refund, books must not be marked or damaged in any way. Any discs or online access codes must be unused and in their original sealed pocket. If the text is marked or damaged, the bookstore reserves the right to refuse the return. If such a book is accepted for return, you will receive "used" value for your text, which is 75 percent of the "new" price.
