Books and Supplies
Tuition does not include the cost of required textbooks and supplies which must be purchased by the student at the beginning of each semester. The bookstore is operated by an independent contractor, and payment is permitted by cash or check, Visa or Master card. Students should report to the College with sufficient funds to purchase the required textbooks and supplies. Even if a student is expecting to have a credit on the student account from the financial aid, that credit will not be available for refund in time for the student to purchase books and supplies. The cost of textbooks and supplies varies greatly according to the courses in which the student is enrolled. The average cost for underclassmen is about $350 to $400 per semester. Supplies for graphic art classes can be considerably higher. A book buy-back is held at the end of each semester.

Each student should arrive at the College with sufficient funds to purchase the required textbooks and supplies. Students should not depend on credit refunds from financial aid programs to pay for books since such credits do not materialize that early in the semester. The cost of books varies greatly but averages about $350 per student per semester. Textbooks are returnable during the first two weeks of each semester. Also, a book buy-back is held at the end of each semester.

Class Ring
The official Flagler College Class Ring is a unique design available from Balfour which comes to campus once a semester to take orders. Rings also may be ordered by phone (1-866-BALFOUR [866-225-3687], and ask for reference code: 2170 [MST0044-51/FL22]). More information and pictures are available on the Balfour Web site. A special ring presentation candlelight ceremony is held later in the semester when the rings arrive. The college president presents each student with his or her ring.

Counseling Services
There is no charge for the visits made by students with short-term or emergency issues to the College's mental health counselors, located upstairs at 20 Valencia (above the Business Office). The college also has an agreement with a qualified licensed psychologist, and students referred for professional counseling are responsible for any charges that may be incurred.

Health Insurance
The College offers a group student accident and sickness plan at $355 for the full year (2005-2006 rates). A pamphlet outlining the coverage is included with the first billing statement. The insurance may be declined by deducting the cost from the statement and completing a waiver stating the student is adequately protected by other policies. Students from foreign countries are required to purchase the insurance and are not permitted to waive the coverage. An optional major medical policy is also available.

Health Services
There is no charge to visit the doctor or nurse at the College's Infirmary or to receive Infirmary-dispensed medications, unless the medications are by prescription. The doctor is available early weekday mornings. A registered nurse is on duty the rest of the day.

Parking Decals
All vehicles must be registered with College Security and bear an official decal. The decals are provided free of charge; however, parking is on a first-come, first-served basis and is limited. Additional paid parking is available four blocks north of the College at the public lot for $3 per every two days. The two-day parking passes are available at the adjacent Visitors Information Center, (904) 825-1000.
