Enter the amount of any college grant and scholarship aid that you (and if married, your spouse) reported as income to the IRS for 2024
Most students leave this question blank because most scholarships and grants are not taxable, unless those award amounts exceed the total amount the student paid for tuition, fees, books, supplies, and required equipment. Typically, this isn’t the same amount as the adjusted gross income (IRS Form 1040, line 11). This entry can be left blank if it does not apply.
Generally, you report any taxable portion of a scholarship, a fellowship grant, or other grant as part of the "Wages, salaries, tips" line of your tax return. If you’re not sure if your grants or scholarships were taxable, use the IRS Interactive Tax Assistant to determine if your scholarship, fellowship, or grant count as income on your tax return.
Types of grants and scholarships that might have been reported to the IRS include the following:
Grants
Scholarships
Waivers/remissions
Fellowships/assistantships (grant or scholarship portions)
AmeriCorps education awards and living allowances
AmeriCorps interest accrual payments (for student loan interest that accrued during your AmeriCorps term of service)
Round to the nearest dollar. Don’t include commas or decimal points.
Do I include my scholarship, fellowship, or education grant as income on my tax return?
This interview will help you determine whether the educational assistance you received is taxable. If you attended more than one educational institution and the funds were used for expenses other than qualified education expenses, run the interview separately for each educational institution.
Information you'll need
Type of educational assistance received.
Terms of the scholarship as to what expenses the funds can be applied toward.
What kinds of expenses that were paid from funds received.
Timeframes of attendance.
The tool is designed for taxpayers who were U.S. citizens or resident aliens for the entire tax year for which they're inquiring. If married, the spouse must also have been a U.S. citizen or resident alien for the entire tax year. For information about nonresidents or dual-status aliens, please see International taxpayers.
