Part III, Line 4:The University holds various pieces of art, which are displayed for the educational enrichment of our students. As proposed by writer, John Henry Newman in Idea of a University, a broad intellectual environment including the arts provides a robust academic experience for students. As such, all JBU students, regardless of major, benefit from displays of art within the educational context.
Part V, Line 4:Endowed funds fund scholarships administered by the University in accordance with guidelines established together by the donor and the University. Endowed scholarships live on in perpetuity distributing funds to deserving students year after year. The funds given to the University are invested and 4.89% (2014), an applied spending rate consisting of the five-year average market value of the funds which includes an inflation component, is awarded to students in the form of annual scholarships. Endowed funds also support several non-scholarship projects, including two centers: The Center for Healthy Relationships and The Soderquist Center for Leadership.
Part X, Line 2:The financial statement effects of a tax position taken or expected to be taken are recognized in the consolidated financial statements when it is more likely than not, based on the technical merits, that the position will be sustained upon examination. Interest and penalties, if any, are included in expenses in the consolidated statements of activities. As of June 30, 2016, the University had no uncertain tax positions that qualify for recognition or disclosure in the financial statements. The University is generally no longer subject to U.S. federal and state income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2013.

Schedule E, Part I, Line 3The University's nondiscriminatory statement is included in local and regional newspaper advertising, as well as on the University website.
Schedule E, Part I, Line 6The federal government awards the University various monies restricted for student financial aid. The monies are awarded through three federal programs: Pell Grant (Pell), Federal Supplemental Opportunity Grant (FSEOG), and Federal Work Study (FWS). Pell provides eligible students a foundation of financial aid to assist with defraying the costs of post-secondary education. Because the Pell grants are classified as pass-through grants, they are excluded from income and expense on the financial statements and Form 990. The FSEOG program provides need based grants to low income undergraduate students to promote access to post-secondary education. The FWS program provides part-time employment to students who need the earnings to help meet their postsecondary education costs. The program is also intended to broaden the range of worthwhile job opportunities to qualified students.

ExplanationAlthough students and their families bear the primary responsibility for meeting costs, many find they cannot pay the full cost of an education by themselves. In most cases a financial aid package will involve family contributions, acceptance of federal assistance (including grants and loans), and financial aid from John Brown University. These financial assistance programs help fill the gap between the amount a family is expected to pay and the total educational cost. The amount the family is expected to pay is based on information provided on the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).ExplanationTxt
