Yes, financial aid is first applied to all charges on your eServices student account bill, including fees for The Century Bundle. If your Financial Aid exceeds your eServices billing charges, you will be eligible for a refund.

Students who receive military education benefits should consult with the staff at Century College’s Veterans Services office to discuss how The Century Bundle program may impact their benefits.

Students have the option to opt out of The Century Bundle and purchase their course materials outside of the program.

All students can use the Bookstore to get books for classes. Bring your class schedule and student ID card to the Bookstore located on the West campus in room W 1240.

All students are encouraged to read the information regarding opt-out prior to opting out of the program. All information regarding opting out can be found in the FAQs section. If a student elects to opt-out of The Century Bundle, it is their responsibility to review and confirm the title and ISBN number for all course materials purchased outside of the program. Students can find this information about their required course materials on the Bookstore website.
