How the program works:
· ASCE East Branch will provide successful applicants with the required text book(s) for all CEE 300 level courses in which they are enrolled for the upcoming semester. Before distributing the books, a deposit of $20-$50 per book (depending on the price of the textbook) will be collected by ASCE East Branch. If the books are returned in good condition at the end of the semester, the deposit will be returned. If the books are not returned, or are not in good condition at the end of the semester, the deposit will be forfeited to ASCE East Branch.
