Dear Dual Enrollment Student

DUAL ENROLLMENT TEXTBOOK INFORMATION FOR CLASSES AT SPC PINELLAS COUNTY SCHOOL STUDENTS

Please note that failure to follow this process (including all deadlines) will result in the student being held responsible for all charges incurred.

Dual enrollment books must be obtained by the tenth day of the semester!!! Books purchased after this deadline are the responsibility of the student.

Students who drop a class during the first 5 days of the semester must return their textbook to the bookstore immediately for a full credit. Students who drop a class between the 5th and 10th day of the semester must return their textbook to their high school counselor in order to be withdrawn from the class.

STEP 1: Print a copy of your SPC fee (class) schedule and take it to the SPC campus bookstore with SPC photo ID (see reverse for directions on how to obtain this) so staff can assist you with your book selection.

To print your schedule, log on to MySPC from the homepage (www.spcollege.edu) or http://my.spcollege.edu with your SPC ID# and password.

Under the Register for Classes tab, choose the Print Schedule option and the correct Term for the fee (class) schedule you need to print.

STEP 2: Be sure to check out at the register before leaving the bookstore. When you provide your fee (class) schedule, it shows that you are a dual enrollment student and Pinellas County Schools is charged for the cost of your book(s).
