NIU students who are receiving financial aid have a convienent method of buying books at the beginning of each semester. Students can use their NIU OneCard ID at either of the two local bookstores to charge the cost of their books to their Bursar Account, simply putting the cost of their books on the bill with tuition and housing that it sent home each semester.  It is important to note, however, that only students who are recieving financial aid can utilize this feature.  A maximum of $700 worth of books can be charged for the fall semester, $700 for the spring semester, and $350 for the summer semester.
