English term or phrase: books and supplies
You will not receive a course fee deferment or a book deferment until the Financial Aid Office has received a valid EFC (Expected Family Contribution) from your processed 2007-2008 FAFSA and your financial aid has been awarded. If you are eligible for a book deferment you will receive it from the bookstore. If you have not been awarded financial aid, you will not be eligible for a book deferment, and you will need to pay for your *books and supplies* with cash or a credit card. We highly recommend that you complete the 2007-2008 FAFSA at least 12 weeks prior to the semester starting! This will help ensure that your financial aid is processed before classes start.

  -> Pienso que "materiales" es abarcativo, mientras que "material" necesitaría un complemento que lo defina: material de oficina, material de estudio, etc. Todo es opinable. Muchas gracias por el aporte.

libros y útiles escolares


Explanation:
libros regularmente se consideran materiales; creo que se refieren a las demás cosas como indicaron anteriormente, pero que por lo general se conocen como útiles escolares.
Enter útiles escolares and you'll see the more than 1.2 million hits you get.
