About the Textbook Rebate project

In 2010, $50,000 will be distributed to students as a rebate for purchasing new textbooks or course materials purchased from an on-campus bookseller.

Distribution of funds will be by a random draw held on April 15, 2010.

Each successful applicant will have 6 months to send in a receipt to claim their rebate.
