Part V, Line 4:Endowment funds are solicited and managed by the American College Foundation - EIN 23-3015130 - in support of the mission of the American College subject to donor/fund restrictions.
Part X, Line 2:The Internal Revenue Service has classified The American College and the Foundation as exempt from federal income taxes under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code ("Code"); as organizations, contributions to which are deductable under Section 170(c) of the Code; and as organizations that are not private foundations as defined in Section 509(a) of the Code. Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require management to evaluate tax positions taken and recognize a tax liability, if the College has taken an uncertain tax position that more likely than not would not be sustained upon examination by a government authority. Management has analyzed the tax position taken by the College and has concluded that as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, there are no uncertain positions taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition of a liability or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements. The College recognizes accrued interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax positions, if any. There were no income tax related interest and penalties recorded for either of the years ended December 31, 2016 or 2015.
Part XI, Line 2d - Other Adjustments:Transfers from The American College Foundation EIN 23-3015130 1309037. Net increase in life insurance cash surrender value 14504.
