How do I use my financial aid money to purchase books ?
NIU has a bookstore charge system at the Holmes Student Center Bookstore and the Village Commons Bookstore which allows students receiving financial assistance to charge up to $700 in books and school supplies for the Fall and Spring Semesters and up to $350 for the Summer Semester to their university tuition account at the Bursar's Office.
There is a limited time for the charge system.
