Book Voucher Instructions
Virtual Bookstore Partnership
Central Louisiana Technical Community College has partnered with MBS Direct / Barnes & Noble Bookstore (BNC) to serve as our virtual bookstore, providing students, staff, and faculty with required textbooks and classroom supplies.
Book Voucher Eligibility & Approval
Students who receive Federal Financial Aid may qualify for a book voucher to purchase required semester materials. Vouchers are approved by the Financial Aid office based on the following criteria:
- Must have sufficient Federal Financial Aid awarded to cover institutional tuition and fees.
- Must have a confirmed remaining credit balance available for bookstore purchases.
How to Access Your Voucher
Once qualified, students will receive an email notification directly from MBS Direct / BNC indicating that the book voucher is active and available for use. Detailed step-by-step instructions on how to access and apply your voucher are included in that email.
Important Student Account Policies
Non-Eligible Charges: If you charge books to your student account and are subsequently found not eligible to receive Federal Financial Aid, you remain fully responsible for paying any and all book charges posted to your student account.
Late Charges & Disbursements: If you receive your credit balance refund before book charges are officially posted to your account, you are responsible for paying the resulting balance caused by late book charges.
