This column is used for reporting international student information (not exchange visitor information) and defaults to this column on the Financial subtab of the Student tab on the International Students and Exchange Visitors window. However, if amounts vary for individual students, you can edit the amount on the Financial subtab. The process multiplies the Dependent Expense by the number of dependents. Therefore, no dependent expense amount will be generated if there are no dependents.
Enter manually the amount associated with this expense. This amount is usually set by your institution. This amount is for the entire program, not just for a term, semester, quarter, etc.
