That's a question for a tax person so let me try - the short answer is that it may be possible but I will call Excelsior tomorrow to ask if they send out 1099s. I am not sure if Excelsior considers their charges tuition or what. I need to look into it for my own taxes so I will let you know what I find out, but I believe that it should not be a problem. As far as Frederick, it's worth calling and asking if they issue 1099s. That's the simplest way to use them as a deduction and, incidently, for those who are freshman or sophomore level, using the Hope credit would probably be more beneficial than the tuition and fees deduction but please check with your individual tax pro. Everyone's situation is different. Btw, to deduct you need to be at least considered half-time. I'm going back to doing taxes now
