Our Best Answer - How does my tuition affect my personal income tax?

Tuition & Personal Income Tax

Some of your education expenses may allow you to be eligible for the Hope and Lifetime Learning education tax credits.  Each year, UC Santa Barbara will create a tax-related document called the 1098-T for every student. 

More tax information can be found on BARC's Tax Information page. You can get a copy of your 1098-T on the Tax Credit Reporting Service (TCRS) student site.
