Education

Sorry if I have been unclear.

(a) I received a very small monthly stipend as a Graduate Assistant (not teaching, if that makes a difference). This was the only thing on my W-2.

(b) There is an amount due to fees that were not covered by the scholarship and an extra class I paid out of pocket for.

(c) Correct

However, box 1 only shows the fees/extra class I took and does not include the scholarship amount that was received via waived tuition/credits. Box 5 does include the scholarship. Therefore, my understanding is that it appears that I received a $XX,XXX scholarship but only paid educational expenses for ~$2,000. Please let me know if further clarity is needed. Thank you.
