Post-Secondary Enrollment Options (PSEO) Textbooks & Materials

All textbooks and equipment provided to a student and paid by PSEO funds are the property of the student’s postsecondary institution. Each student is required to return all textbooks and equipment to the Saint Paul College Bookstore after the course has ended.

Saint Paul College will charge fees for textbooks, workbooks, and library books, lost or destroyed by students. The college will notify students about its policy to charge a fee under this paragraph.

​Reference: MN Statutes section 124D.09 Subd. 20 and 123B.37​

All PSEO textbooks and materials, excluding art supplies, workbooks, and printed packets, shall be returned to the Saint Paul College Bookstore where originally purchased by the last day of class of the semester in which the books were used. The tuition office shall send letters to PSEO students, notifying them of the book return deadline and the consequences for failure to return books by the due date. The bookstore shall also post notifications to remind students of materials due date for each semester.

If a PSEO student fails to return textbooks and materials to the campus bookstore by the last day of class of the semester, a fee equal to 75% of the original purchase price shall be assessed by the tuition office, and a hold will be placed on the student’s record until such assessment is paid.

The campus bookstore shall not accept textbooks and materials for return after the semester deadline.

Fees assessed for textbooks and materials shall be monitored in accordance with Tuition Office billing procedure.
