The primary purpose of the tuition/textbook loan program is to assist college students who may not qualify for any other type of aid, and do not have enough disposable income to pay tuition and/or purchase books. Students who are eligible for these loans should not be receiving other funding for tuition and books.
Tuition loans are for district tuition only, if you live outside of the district, you are required to pay the difference.
These loans are initially set-up thru Richland's Financial Aid Office. However, the loan accounts are reconciled and maintained thru Richland's Accounts Receivable Department located in the Business Office.
For questions regarding Tuition/Textbook Loans please contact: Rosalia Baker at 972-238-6976 or Kresha Morgan at 972-238-6326
Literally, hundreds of 1098-T forms are returned because students have moved since last attending the DCCCD. The fastest way for the student to access a copy of their 1098-T form is via the ACS Website there is a step by step instruction form on how to enter the website, retrieve and print a copy of the 1098-T form. This instruction form can be found in the Forms section of the main page.
Also, please be aware that amounts paid for Continuing Education courses are not included on the 1098-T form unless the student also had Credit classes during a term. If you are a Continuing Education Student you may be eligible for the Hope Lifetime Learning Tax Credit. The Hope Lifetime Learning Tax Credit form can also be located in the Forms section
