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 2007-2008 Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) on file with the Lane Community College Financial Aid Office. Once we have a record of your FAFSA being completed and received by Lane you will be permitted to charge up to $500 in the Bookstore. Because it can take two or more weeks for Lane to receive your FAFSA, it may take that long before you are able to charge your books. 

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. Refer to the Bookstore webpages to review the dates charging will be allowed.

Cut off dates for charging at the Bookstore:

Fall term: Oct. 9th, 2007

Winter term: Jan. 22nd, 2008

Spring term: April 15th, 2008

To apply for financial aid at Lane go to http://www.fafsa.ed.gov/  If you have questions on completing the FAFSA or the process to be able to charge in the Bookstore at Lane Community College, please contact Enrollment Services at (541) 463-3100.

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.
