Buying/Renting Books
Visit to see what
books and materials are needed for your courses.
You may order books to be shipped to your
address, or to be held for pick-up at the FCC
Bookstore, which is located on the first floor of
the Student Center.
Some course books are available to rent from the
FCC Bookstore. All book rentals must be secured
with a credit card, and may be paid for with
cash, check, or credit card. Students must be 18
or older to rent books and must provide a valid
Student ID. Students younger than 18 must have
a parent sign for the rental.
Books cannot be rented through our website.
You cannot use financial aid to order books
online. You must come to the Bookstore with
your student ID to purchase or rent books
with financial aid.
Family Educational
Rights & Privacy Act of
1974 (FERPA)
FERPA, commonly known as the Buckley
Amendment, was issued by the Department
of Health, Education and Welfare in the 1976
Federal Register. The regulations were transferred
to the Department of Education when it was
established and codified in Part 99 of Title 34 of
the Code of Federal Regulations.
The purpose of FERPA is to afford certain rights
to students concerning their educational
records. FERPA applies to all schools that receive
funding under most programs administered by
the Secretary of Education. Most postsecondary
institutions, both public and private, generally
receive such funding and must, therefore,
comply with FERPA.
FERPA applies to all education records
maintained by a postsecondary institution, or
by any party acting for the institution, which are
directly related to the student. These include,
but are not limited to, assessment test scores,
academic standing, rosters, class schedule, or
any information that would make the student’s
identification easily traceable. FCC may release
directory information, which includes student’s
name, dates of attendance, and enrollment
status–see the FCC catalog for a complete list.
Students wishing to restrict directory
information or grant additional access must
contact the Welcome Center (in writing) with
their request within two weeks of the start of the
semester. A new form is required each semester.
Contact the Welcome Center for additional
information.
