Book Deferment

<p>Okay, so I have $500 worth of deferment, but none of my needed books are available used from the bookstore. What do I do if I want to buy them from somewhere off-campus? Is there somewhere off-campus that's more likely to have used books?</p>

<p>The bookstores off campus have textbook deferment as well. Basically, you give them a check or leave a credit card number and they wont cash in the check or charge your credit card until financial aid is disbursed. </p>

<p>All off campus bookstores usually have used books, its a matter of shopping around. You could also buy your stuff online (half.com) and use your own money and then wait for your financial aid. </p>

<p>Off campus bookstores are:
Florida Bookstore - [url=<a href="http://www.flbookstore.com%5DWelcome"&gt;http://www.flbookstore.com]Welcome&lt;/a> | Florida Book Store<a href="Its%20on%20University%20Ave.">/url</a> </p>

<p>Orange and Blue Textbooks (OBT) - [url=<a href="http://www.obtbooks.com%5DOrange"&gt;http://www.obtbooks.com]Orange&lt;/a> and Blue Textbooks<a href="13th%20St%20and%20North%20of%20University%20Ave.%20Across%20from%20krispy%20kreme">/url</a> </p>

<p>Gator Textbooks (couldnt find the website, this one is a bit further from the first two)</p>

<p>Is it hard to cancel my deferment with the UF Bookstore? I also don't have direct deposit because I don't want them drawing some obscure debt from my bank account without me knowing.</p>

<p>If you haven't ordered anything from the UF bookstore, I don't think you have to cancel anything. They were just letting you know that should you choose to use it, you could spend up to $500 and not have to pay until your Financial Aid is disbursed.</p>

<p>Okay, that makes sense.</p>

<p>Also, how important is matching the ISBN numbers?</p>
