UWC Scholars Book Vouchers & Course Materials
Book Vouchers
Book vouchers, as part of OU UWC Scholars Program scholarships, are an account associated with a UWC Scholar’s OU ID number used for purchasing required textbooks and academic materials for enrolled OU courses. They operate like a credit account that allows students to charge the cost of required course materials to their bursar accounts. Approved and eligble charges of these required academic materials are then covered by scholarship.
The resource guides cover book voucher processes, documentation requirements, eligible/ineligible items, and guidelines to ensure book vouchers and materials purchased are handled properly.
It is strongly recommended that current UWC scholars review the guidelines, policies, and instructions for the UWC Scholars Book Vouchers each semester.

Check Request & Reimbursement Guidelines for Required Course Materials
The OU UWC Scholars staff understand that not everything required for your courses is available at the OU Bookstore. These guidelines are for current students requesting a check to purchase, or a reimbursement for the purchase of, required course materials not available at the OU Bookstore. Please refer to these guidelines before purchasing course materials or requesting a check to purchase. These guidelines also address which items are eligible or ineligible for reimbursement. When in doubt, always obtain pre-approval from the OU UWC Scholars Offices at uwcscholars@ou.edu.
Current OU UWC Scholars will use the online form for submitting check and reimbursement requests and must have eRefunds set up on their ONE account for these requests to be fully processed.
Students may access the online form here.
