Business Office / Billing and Payment
What does it cost?
In addition to the tuition & fees posted directly to your student account, there are additional indirect costs associated with attending college. The MTSA Cost of Attendance, used for awarding financial aid, includes other “average” expenses that you may incur that are not billed to your MTSA student account. This information will hopefully assist you in developing your budget.

Refunds
1098-T
The Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997 allows a tax credit to be claimed for out-of-pocket payments made to eligible higher education institutions during the tax year for qualified tuition and fees. The IRS requires that colleges and universities provide a 1098-T Tuition Statement for the purpose of determining a taxpayer’s eligibility for various education tax credits or deductions.
1098-T forms will be mailed no later than January 31. MTSA’s 1098-T’s are issued through a 3rd party servicer (ECSI).
Be sure to keep your address current on Campus Café or with the Registrar’s office if you no longer have access to the student portal. If you do not receive your 1098-T by mid-February, or have any questions about the form, please contact MTSA Business Office (Business.Office@mtsa.edu).
