College Comfort is Barnes & Noble College’s latest initiative to support students across their entire academic journey. A convenient, one-stop shop for college living essentials at the campus store, this collection is specifically designed for stylish, small-space living. It includes creative options for storage and organization, damage-free room décor, well-being and more.

In our annual Student Pulse survey, college students expressed high levels of satisfaction with their BNC campus store, including the overall experience, excellent customer service and quality of the dedicated, local store team. The campus store remained students’ #1 destination for course materials and school-branded apparel.

In a recent survey, students confirm that BNC’s equitable access program, First Day® Complete (FDC), made it convenient for them to get their required course materials and be better prepared for the academic term.

Consistent, exceptional customer service plays a vital role in supporting the highest priority goals of BNC’s college and university partners. We equip campus store managers and teams to provide the service, solutions and experiences that deliver better outcomes for students, faculty, and the entire campus community.
