Refund Policy
Books
Students can purchase textbooks from the Craven Community College bookstore, located in Bate Hall on the New Bern campus. Visit the bookstore website for costs.
Digital Course Material
We have established a digital course fee with BibliU to reduce book/supply costs for certain courses. Although this saves you money, you have the option to opt out of purchasing digital course material. Your option to opt out is accessible in Moodle. Once you access the BibliU reader through Moodle, a link can be found in the banner at the top of the page. This will take you to a page to review a summary of your requirements and finalize opt out. Opting out encompasses the entire term and will opt the student out of all courses.
Paying for Short-Term and Workforce Classes
If you’re in one of our short-term workforce development training classes, you are not eligible for traditional financial aid such as the FAFSA. However, we have several scholarship options that may partially or completely cover the cost of your class.
