- Books: If you have aid left over after tuition and fees are subtracted, you are able to use up to $800 or 75% of the amount left to purchase textbooks. This is called a “book voucher”. The amount used will be deducted from your refund.
- Rent: The apartment complexes in Statesboro know that many students rely on their financial aid refunds to pay their rent, and the majority of them will work with you to modify payment deadlines to meet financial aid disbursement schedules.
- Meal Plans: Meal plans are purchased through GS and must be paid for upfront. In other words, you are unable to wait on a financial aid refund before paying for the meal plan.
