1098-T Tax Form
The 1098-T is a tax form that shows how much you paid for qualified tuition and fees during the year. Students may use this form when filing their taxes.
Current students can access their 1098-T form through iConnect.
If you have questions, contact Student Financial Services. For help using the form, we recommend speaking with a qualified tax professional.
Policies & Agreements
Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) helps make sure students are successfully working toward their degree or certificate while receiving financial aid. SAP is based on factors like grades, course completion, and overall academic progress. Students are expected to meet these standards to stay eligible for financial aid. New and continuing students can access more information about SAP requirements, policies, and support resources through iConnect.
