Credit Policy/Bookstore Charging Process

CreditLine is the name Lane uses for our credit policy and the process that allows you to charge your Bookstore purchases to your student account.

To charge books in the Bookstore, you will need a 2008-2009 Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) on file with the Lane Community College Financial Aid Office. If you have questions about completing your FAFSA, please contact Enrollment and Student Financial Services at (541) 463-3100. 

Once Lane has received your FAFSA you will be permitted to charge up to $500 in the Bookstore.

It can take 1-2 weeks for Lane to receive your FAFSA from the time you file it, so complete it early.

As a financial aid applicant, you will be able to begin charging when the Bookstore opens each term through the third Tuesday of each term.

Dates for charging at the Bookstore for 2008-09:
Fall term: September 15 - October 14
Winter term: December 29 - January 20
Spring term: March 24 - April 14

How to charge at the bookstore:

• On the day that you want to charge in the Bookstore, log into ExpressLane, select "Enrollment Services", then select "Registration".  Select the "Check Your Bookstore Charging Eligibility" link to verify that you can charge in the Bookstore. 
• Print your student schedule, and take your schedule and a photo ID to the cash register in the bookstore when you are ready to charge your purchases.

All charges accrued must be paid by the regular billing cycle due date or will be subject to the policies outlined in the Creditline Plan and Account Agreement. As soon you register for any class at Lane, you are expected to have read this agreement.

Creditline is not a financial aid award. Any unused amount will not be returned to you.  As a recipient of financial aid you should be aware that if you marked "no" on your Title IV form, financial aid will only pay tuition and class fees and will not pay for CreditLine charges to your student account.  Financial aid can only pay as much as your awarded amount for the term, and this may or may not be adequate to pay your entire bill, depending on your eligibility.  You are responsible for any amount on your account after the refund period, including financial aid.
