Deductions & credits
As long as you put in the $$ you actually paid for that qtr, and the other quarters, it just adds into the total taxes paid, and you got credit for it.
Whether there is an actual refund really depends on ALL your income, deductions & Credits for the year, all taken together. i.e. if you were effectively short some quarter, or if your extra income pushed you into a higher tax bracket, then some or all of that payment (or any of the payments) is just used to pay off that extra tax.
You do need to make sure you enter the withholding when you enter whatever tax form UCLA sends to you....so that you get credit for that.
_________________________________________________________
After you've entered everything, there is a way to see whether you got proper credits for those payments, but you need to print a copy (OK...actually save to PDF File) of your tax file from the Print Center...but choose the option to show all the worksheets. In that PDF will be a Federal "Tax Payments Worksheet" that breaks down all of your Quarterly estimated payments (Federal and state), and withholding $$ delineated by form type. IF all your Qtr payments and withholding add up there, then you got proper credit for all of them.
