If you’ve given the Financial Aid Office permission (by signing the Acknowledgements and Certifications Form) to establish an account in the GCC Bookstore, you will be allowed to use financial aid to help purchase textbooks and supplies. Note that you will only have an account set up if you have excess financial aid after your tuition and fee bill is deducted from your award. If you don’t have enough excess aid for books and supplies, you will not have an account open at the Bookstore. If you add or drop classes after your bookstore account is set up, your aid may be adjusted and you could owe a balance. Speak with someone in the financial aid office before adjusting your schedule to find out how this will affect your eligibility.
