The amounts reported on the 1098T are for qualified tuition and related expense transactions that occur within a particular calendar year (Jan 1- Dec 31). Because spring registration takes place in the preceding fall season, you may have spring charges for the upcoming year on your 1098T. If you have this, there will be a check mark in box 7.

Your electronic 1098-T Tuition Statement form will be on SWORDS.  Once the information is available, the student can access it on SWORDS by following these links from the Middle Georgia State University website:

• SWORDS Secure Login.
• Under 'Student Accounts'
• Click the Tax Notification (1098-T) link, and select the Tax Year.

You will get a 1098T if you have a reportable transaction within the calendar year being reported. Students whose amounts are zero for the 1098T boxes 2, 4, 5, and 6 will not receive a form. Examples of students who might be excluded are persons aged 62 or over who use a tuition waiver or USG employees using tuition assistance.
