The International Programs and Services staff does not have this type of expertise, and therefore cannot assist you with advice or preparation of these tax forms. Please review this handout carefully for guidance to filing required tax forms.

Program Cost Information

This is the amount of funding that must be shown before a form I-20 can be issued by the International Student Services Office and to the U.S. Consulate before the F-1 visa can be issued. You can count any scholarships you are awarded toward the total cost listed on the program cost information for your program.

The costs listed on the Program Cost Information handout for your program are estimates and should not be used to determine the actual costs associated with attending Lynn University.
