If you were only on Fellowship, then you would not receive a W-2. The University is not required to report the income of a Fellowship as we are not required to withhold taxes. The Fellowship is only not taxable for qualified education expenses, anything that is not a qualified education expense would need to be reported as income on your Tax Return. Please review http://www1.udel.edu/payroll/docs/grad-fellow-tax-wrksheet.pdf.
