College tuition and fees are included in the cost of support. Student loans are considered support to test if the person qualifies for dependency.

 

Support generally includes amounts expended for food, shelter, clothing, medical and dental care, education, and other similar items. If and how a particular expenditure is taken into account in the support test depends on the source of funds used to pay it.
