You will be directed to the Proxy Sign In page. Enter the email address and password that were established during your proxy account setup, then click Sign In.

Note: If the page reads No 1098-T form available to view, the form may not yet have been issued for that tax year, or the student may not have met the threshold for receiving a 1098-T. Contact the Bursar’s Office for further assistance.
