The University is not a private foundation under Section 509(a)(2), and its donors qualify to deduct their donations to the University on their federal income tax returns. At year end, the Universitys IRS Form 990 filed with the Internal RevenueService remain open for examination for generally three years after they were filed. The University follows the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (FASB ASC), which provides guidance on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an organizations financial statements. The guidance prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return, and also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. Examples of tax positions include the tax-exempt status of the University and various positions related to the potential sources of unrelated business income tax (UBIT). At year end, the University had no uncertain tax positions that qualified for either recognition of an unrecognized tax benefit or disclosure in its financial statements. The Universitys policy is to recognize interest and penalties, if any, on tax positions related to its unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense in the financial statements. No interest and penalties were assessed or recorded during the year then ended. true true true true true true true false false false false false false false false true false true true Scholarships and Financial Aid 667 2375920 Cash X X X false false false false false false false false false William Nordling Professor PSYD Program 153731 3923 157654 Thomas Ray Brooks VP - Enrollment & Marketing 168600 12504 181104 Harvey Isaac Payne Dean - School of Counseling 165794 4359 12250 182403 Stephen Sharp Dean of the Global Campus 146990 3767 7092 157849 X 6 1547725 Fair Value false true false Form 990 governing body review Part VI line 11 The Form 990 is prepared by an independent CPA firm.
