Catalog 2014-2015

Other Expenses

It is mandatory that students purchase the books, supplies, tools, and equipment required by their instructors. Textbooks and other supplies are available in the campus bookstore. Costs will vary depending on the course.

Students registering for certain courses will be charged a supply fee to cover the cost of materials students use in the courses. The HOPE Grant and Scholarship programs will not cover any fees; therefore, students are expected to make payment with cash, check, money order, or credit card to cover these fees. They may also authorize the college to deduct these fees from their federal financial aid benefits (see Electronic Authorization of Federal Financial Aid Funds). Supply fees are listed in the applicable course descriptions. Students should also review the programs of study descriptions for information on program-specific expenses.
