This may seem like a silly question, but once I have received a student ID card (I'm new this year) is there anything left to do prior to buying textbooks etc from the campus store? I.e. do I bring the card in and process payment that way or are there extra forms to fill out for a first time purchase

You can pay via credit/debit/cash or it can be charged to ur student account and added to ur student fees.

When you have your new card with the current semester sticker on it (sounds like you do) and you would like to use it to purchase your books all you need to do is bring the card and one other piece of photo ID to any cash register at the Main Store or Health Sciences Campus Store. You will do this each semester when you are issued a new sticker for your student card.

You fill out a form on the spot (it is super short) and you are good to go. You then have up to $1,500 in credit.
