CCP Books
Course Materials Process for College Credit Plus (CCP) Students:
Online/On-Campus Classes: CCP Voucher is a payment option at the bookstore for CCP students to use on required course materials being paid for by a high school or district. Any books not covered by the high school or district are the student's responsibility. If a high school or district has not agreed to set up vouchers for their students, then it will be the student's responsibility to reach out to the high school or district to obtain books. See if your school has partnered under Voucher Eligibility FAQ.
High School Location Delivery: School Districts order books for Embedded High School Classes through the bookstore, and then distribute books to students. If a school district needs ordering assistance, please see High School Delivery FAQ.
Voucher Process
VOUCHER ELIGIBILITY FAQ Online ACCESS VIDEO TUTORIALHow to use a Voucher
Students will receive a notification with ordering instructions to their CSCC email once they are authorized to use their voucher. SP23 notifications will be sent out beginning Thursday, January 5. Classes start January 17. Vouchers are serviced online at bookstore.cscc.edu.
Vouchers cover required course materials only and exclude self-pay courses or classes taught at a high school location. Not all students or course materials will be eligible, so please check Voucher Eligibility FAQ.
- If you have not received a notification by the start of the semester and feel you should have, please have your Columbus State CCP advisor contact ccplusbooks@cscc.edu.
- Students are responsible for ineligible purchases on their voucher.
- Students are responsible for completing a refund on anything ineligible they received on a voucher, following bookstore policy. See Voucher Refund.
- Students are responsible for returning required books and calculators at the end of each semester to whichever location the high school has requested. See Book Collection.
Obtaining Online Materials
Access to online materials is typically done through blackboard with a link provided by the instructor and may require a code to gain access. Students must order an access code from the bookstore to gain access to a course that requires a code. If you purchase a code from a source other than the bookstore, the cost cannot be reimbursed.
- Instant Access: No access code is necessary for Instant Access (IA) courses. Each IA course is identified and noted in CSCC's course listings; when a student registers for one of these courses, the e-book will automatically be uploaded to Blackboard and the student will have access on the first day of class.
- Ordering Codes: codes are sold separately (access code format) or sold with a physical book (bundle format). Only one format is authorized to order for each course. If there is more than one format to choose from for your course, then materials will be listed under "choose 1 of" when you place your order. We do NOT email codes. Your code will be on a physical card, so make sure to not accidentally throw it away or lose it once your order arrives! Codes sold separately will be stapled to your order paperwork. Bundled codes will be included inside/outside the book wrapping.
- Free Access Trials: Many courses will offer a 2-week FREE TRIAL access; however, this will expire! To avoid gaps in access, students should order an access code before the trial expires.

- Public/Private Schools are responsible for covering textbook costs for CCP funded courses.

To participate in the Voucher Program a high school or district should contact ccplusbooks@cscc.edu and request to complete a "CCP Tuition and Fees School District Book Process MOU".
Optional Course Materials: Anything listed as optional is not covered, this includes barcharts and IA print books. Please place a separate credit card order for any optional materials.
High School Sections: Your high school will distribute required course materials for any high school sections you are enrolled in. These show as 8000 level sections on your schedule (begin with 8, W8, or B8, i.e. PSY-1100-8230) and include all courses taught at a high school location. Please notify your high school if you have not received required materials by the first day of the course.
Self-Pay Course: If a course is marked as self-pay, then the entire course/credit hours will be self-pay (tuition, fees, and course materials).
Self-Pay Issue: If a student has exceeded their max credit hours per the year for CCP funding, then a voucher will not be issued for any course materials (even if some credits are available) until the student is in compliance, by either dropping a course(s) from their schedule until they are no longer exceeding the alotted CCP credit hours, or filling out a Financial Responsibility (FRF) form from their CSCC advisor for the courses that are exceeding their credit hours.
If your instructor lists something as required on your syllabus (this includes uniforms and supplies) but it is not listed as required (or a choice) under your course at the bookstore, then it is not eligible to order until you get approval from the bookstore.
Submit an approval request by emailing a copy of your syllabus (attached as a word doc, pdf, or screenshot) to ccplusbooks@cscc.edu that shows the item(s) are required, with the following information:

Item(s) Being Requested:
There is no "physical" voucher. When a voucher is issued and available to use, students will receive a notification to their CSCC student email with instructions on how to place an order. If you have not received a voucher, please do the following:
- Make sure you setup your CSCC student email and check your inbox for your notification. This is the only email address it will be sent to.
- Check voucher opening dates to see if vouchers have been issued yet or if you need to wait.
- Confirm your voucher eligibility. If your school has not authorized vouchers or all your courses are ineligible, then you will not receive a voucher.
- Confirm you are registered and have funding. If there is a delay in your registration, funding, or scheduling of courses, then your voucher account will also be delayed. Please be patient and give us a few days if this information was recently updated.
- If you have not received a notification by the start of the semester and feel you should have, please have your Columbus State CCP advisor contact ccplusbooks@cscc.edu.
The Registration Consense Form signed by you, your parent/guardian, and your guidance counselor includes the maximum number of credit hours for which you are funded for the year. Books for any additional classes beyond the maximum hours awarded are not eligible for funding with a voucher. Students will be responsible to self-pay for these books as well as associated tuition and fees.
If your couse has a fee that exceeds $750 it is self-pay for both tuition and course materials. Fees as defined in rule 3333-1-65 of the Administrative Code and reported in compliance with section 3345.39 of the Revised Code. The Chancellor has determined that the fee amount is $750. Any course with that fee amount or greater will no longer be allowable for College Credit Plus. The first term of implementing this non-allowable course will be Spring semester 2019. Required course supplies are considered a fee.

The Bookstore will email the school district ordering information each semester after the opening registration date. This email will include an attached order form containing all CCP courses being offered at the district for the upcoming semester, as well as any required course materials for each course. Orders should be sent back as early as possible.
The school should submit the order quantity for each title where qty is required and confirm the following:
- Shipping Address
- Primary Contact
- All current semester courses being offered are listed.
If order qty for a title notes "N/A" then an order does not need placed for the title due to one of the following:
- No text is required for the course, or the text is being offered for free via OER by the instructor.
- The school has confirmed zero/no order quantity for the title.
- The course is INSTANT ACCESS so no textbook order is necessary. Each Instant Access course is identified and noted in CSCC's course listings; when a student registers for one of these, the instructor will provide a link to the e-book on Blackboard for students to have access on the first day of class. Instant Access ebook fees are charged to the high school during invoicing. For a comprehensive list of Instant Access courses and program information, see: cscc.edu/bookstore/affordability-bookstore.shtml#instantaccess.
Instructor Copies: If a school needs to request an instructor copy of a book, please reach out to the publisher of the title listed on your form to see if one can be provided. CSCC academic departments may also be able to assist with these requests. If an instructor copy is no longer available, you can order an additional copy from the bookstore.
Available Formats: If a title is listed as a book/code combo (bundle format) or standalone code (access code format), then you may request a different format if the order note says a different option is available. Please reply to your order email with your request and we will update your order.
