*Tax Information Session:*

Identify the proper documentation needed to prepare for income tax filing
process; identify the different types of tax forms and develop an
understanding of them; navigate through the web to find helpful tax
resources; and locate off-campus resources available to complete income
taxes.



If you are unable to attend, below are some online resources.  I would
specifically highly recommend reading the IRS Publication 970 – Tax
Benefits for Education <https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/p970.pdf> page 7 as
it has a 9 step worksheet on calculating taxable scholarship and fellowship
income.
