<p>I assumed the $8151 you mentioned for tuition was for the normal school year and did not include the $890 for summer tuition based on how you worded your original quote. ;)</p>
<p>I hate to ask another dumb question but my head is spinning at this point.
On my D return, I have to pay the difference between the scholarship and tuition, right?
$14603 - $8151 = $6452.
I am taking the AOC for the $890 we spent on summer tuition. My D has to pay taxes on the $890 too, correct? </p>
<p>If you included the $890 in the original $8151 amount than the $6452 figure is what your student pays taxes as income not $6452 + $890.</p>
