Created in partnership with Akademos, Inc. and powered by TextbookX, the Online Bookstore simplifies the textbook ordering process for students and faculty while providing a variety of physical and digital textbook formats.

Students log in with an MyNHSC username and password then select what they need from new, used, eBook, and rental options as well as having the choice to buy books from third-party marketplace merchants or other students around the country.

Students are able to use their Bookstore Voucher to pay for their books through our online Bookstore.  What is a Bookstore Voucher?  It is a way for students to purchase their books without the need to enter a credit card.  The voucher allows students to “charge” their books and essential items required per class to their NHSC student account. The amount of the charges a student uses from their bookstore voucher, will be paid back through the students Pell award, scholarships or a direct payment to NHSC.  Students are not able to purchase anything other than their required books, equipment and ancillary items, along with a one-time purchase of a Dell laptop to use for educational purposes.

In 2020 NHS College made the move to a laptop institution. Each student needs to have a laptop to attend NHS College. Students are able to purchase a laptop through their book vouchers at Akademos. Being a laptop college assists students in having needed technology at home and the ability to bring their laptops with them to class to enhance learning.
