How do I know if I have a book deferral?

• Log in to your MyTC3 account
• Click the My Info tab
• Click the Finances tab
• Select the appropriate academic year and click the submit button (ex. 2010-2011 academic year is 2010)
• Here you will see the requested documents and if they have been received, your financial aid awards and below that table you should see a book deferral heading. If you have a book deferral available to you it will show the beginning amount here.*

* This shows the maximum amount of book deferral that is available to you and does not reflect any charges or returns you may have already done with the bookstore. This amount is calculated based on the number of credits you are enrolled in and the amount of anticipated financial aid you have that is above and beyond any charges due to the college.
