Republican Proposal Would Make College Scholarships Taxable Income

[Cattledog]

In a leaked document, obtained by Politico, of programs and existing tax breaks Republicans are considering changing to help pay for continuing the 2017 tax cuts, making all scholarships and fellowships taxable income stands out as a proposal that would immediately make college more expensive for the millions of students who receive grants and scholarships to help pay their tuition and fees.

If enacted, the change would make it more expensive to become a teacher, nurse, doctor, social worker or any of the other essential jobs where a college education is required. Tuition is expensive and students are constantly told that one way they can help make it less expensive is to get good grades so they can win a scholarship.
