Form 1098-T Information

The IRS requires all Colleges and Universities to prepare form 1098-T for students who were billed for credit courses during the past year. These students (or their parents) may be eligible to take either a tuition and fee deduction or claim an educational credit on their tax return.

The College contracts with an outside agency (ECSI) to process the 1098-T forms electronically. These forms will be available each January 31. Until the first of January, students will have the ability to opt-in to an electronic delivery of the form. Otherwise a form will be sent to them in the mail. Whether a form is mailed electronically or on paper, students will have the ability to go online to print their 1098-T form.

ECSI also provides a call center and online chat for questions about the 1098-T tax form. The toll free number to contact them is 1.866.428.1098.
