• The cost for all required textbooks is covered under the PSEO program. It also covers supplies that are required specifically for a class (ie: art supplies, film, etc.).
• Textbooks and materials provided to the student are the property of the postsecondary institution and must be returned by the student after the course has ended.

According to MN Statutes section 124D.09 Subd. 20,

“All textbooks and equipment provided to a pupil and paid for under subdivision 13, are the property of the pupil’s postsecondary institution. Each pupil is required to return all textbooks and equipment to the postsecondary institution after the course has ended.”

Therefore, all PSEO textbooks and materials must be returned to the Concordia University Bookstore by the last day of Finals Week within the semester in which the books were used.

If a PSEO student fails to return textbooks and materials to the Bookstore by the end of Finals week, a hold will be placed on the student’s record. The student will not be able to purchase any additional books and materials for the following semester until a fee equal to 100% of the original purchase price is paid in full at the Business Office.

The Bookstore cannot accept textbooks and materials for return after the semester deadline.

Students who wish to participate in the PSEO program for subsequent semesters must complete and submit the “Post Secondary Enrollment Options Program Notice of Student Enrollment” Form (Form ED-01763-11) to the Academic Advising office each semester.
