Textbook Credit can only be used ONLINE, in the virtual UBalt Bookstore (powered by MBS Direct). Learn more at www.ubalt.edu/Bookstore

Campus Store Credit is used at the Hive in the Student Center. Campus Store Credit is for School supplies and items needed for school, except textbooks: Examples are pencils and pens, notebooks, Scantron forms, Bluebooks, backpacks, and computers. Funds remain available for approximately the first eight weeks of the semester, and unspent funds will be refunded.

Each semester there is a cut off date to use your bookstore credit.  After the cutoff date, you will be issued a refund from the Financial Aid office. If you have questions about a refund from Textbook Credit or Campus Store Credit, contact Financial Aid.
