Updates in Higher Education Taxation

Live Webcast – Jun 3-4, 2026

Join us for UT Law CLE's 2026 Updates in Higher Education Taxation to hear important updates and guidance for college and university tax professionals on federal tax issues and compliance, as well as legislative, judicial, regulatory, and administrative changes affecting colleges and universities. Across two afternoons, attendees will delve into critical updates on federal tax legislation, IRS enforcement trends, and judicial decisions shaping institutional compliance responsibilities. The program offers practical guidance on a wide spectrum of issues, including unrelated business income, executive compensation and §4960 rules, tax‑exempt bond financing, strategic alliances and joint ventures, and the evolving legal and tax considerations surrounding Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) arrangements. By the end of the program, attendees will be able to: Identify and evaluate recent legislative, regulatory, and judicial developments affecting tax‑exempt higher‑education institutions. Explain the new rules and less‑apparent compliance implications of OB3 affecting colleges and universities. Identify compliance obligations, risk points, and reporting considerations associated with NIL activities. Assess how forthcoming changes may affect institutional planning, operations, and compliance. Develop strategies to address areas commonly targeted in IRS enforcement.The 2026 Updates in Higher Education Taxation will serve in place of the annual Higher Education Taxation Institute (HETI). HETI will return as a live, in-person program in June 2027
