PART X, LINE 2:

“The school has adopted the provisions of fasb asc 740, accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. Accordingly, management has evaluated the school's tax positions and concluded the school had maintained its tax-exempt status, does not have any significant unrelated business income and had taken no uncertain tax positions that require adjustment or disclosure in the financial statements. With few exceptions, the school is no longer subject to income tax examinations by the u.s. Federal or state tax authorities for years before 2018.”
