BOOKSTORE PURCHASES MAY BE CHARGED TO YOUR SHORTER STUDENT ACCOUNT

Shorter University will allow textbooks and course materials purchased at our University Bookstore to be charged to your Shorter Student account using your Student ID for all students (Traditional, Online, and CAPP). If you choose to use this method for purchasing your books, be aware that by doing so you are authorizing Shorter University to deduct all bookstore charges from any funds posted on your student account, including Title IV financial aid. In the event you do not receive enough funds to cover the balance due, you are responsible to pay these charges in full or a hold will be placed on your account.

This service has been made available to you as an alternative to waiting for financial aid funds to post to your account before obtaining your textbooks and course materials. You are not required to use this service.

NOTE: If a student has a credit balance on their account, Shorter University will allow textbooks and course materials (paper, pens, scantrons) purchased at our University Bookstore to be charged to your Shorter Student account using your Student ID for all students with a credit balance(Traditional, Online, and CAPP) for a 4 week time frame. The time frame is as follows: Two weeks before classes start, the week of drop/add, and the week following drop/add. After that time frame, no more bookstore charges can be charged to the students account.
