I believe the amount gets applied what you owe the school for your tuition and it never get transferred to your bank account..unless something changed this school year. Someone else please confirm.

Yeah, it's an option you can check off on your payment agreement, to use it up. If you've already paid without using that option, then it is applied as a credit towards your account. I believe they send out cheques at the end of the year (April-May ish?), or you can go to Student Accounts and Cashiers and request to get the money directly any time.

You can use the money ONLY toward tuition or other school needs. I asked them if I can withdraw the money but they said no it is used only for tuition purposes.

Does buying textbooks included in there? so the money never comes into my student bank?

The money does go in your student account. It can only be used toward tuition. About textbooks... I'm not sure about that one.
