Form 1098-T

The University is required to furnish a 1098-T form to each registered student every calendar year. The University sends the 1098-T information to the IRS, the form does not need to be attached to a tax return; students may keep the form for their records.

We report the qualified tuition and related expenses in box 2 for the calendar year. Box 1 will always be blank. If students need verification of the amount paid, they may either print statements from the eBill system, or contact our office to request statements showing the amount paid.

The 1098-T is made available to eligible students by January 31st each year. We strongly advise that students elect to receive their 1098-T delivered electronically. To receive the 1098-T electronically, please sign up on ECSI’s secure website. You’ll need to enter your Student ID, name and email address; then consent to the electronic disclosure and submit.

Please complete the W-9S form to update your address and/or tax-payer identification number prior to December 31st.
