Tax Information

529 Plan

The NY State SAVES 529 program, as well as other similar state programs, are accepted by Hunter College as a means to pay for a student’s tuition and fee charges.

Students are required to provide documentation of the exact amount being funded through the 529 program at least one week prior to the bill due date to allow time for processing. Please see the third party billing page for additional information.

If the College bills the 529 program and fails to receive payment, the student will be held responsible for settling the bill. It is advised the student check with the program to ensure timely payment.

1098T Tax Form

The 1098T tax form is issued to all Hunter students who pay tuition and fees from January 1 to December 31 of each calendar year. Forms are mailed by the CUNY l098T Server on January 31st of each year for the prior calendar year.

You can access your 1098T by logging into CUNYfirst and following these steps:

  1. Click on Student Center
  2. Click on Financial Account
  3. Click View 1098T

Students requesting duplicate 1098T forms for any years prior to the current year will be charged $5.00 per year.

If you have a specific question about your 1098T form, please email Irving Rodriguez at irrodrig@hunter.cuny.edu.
