Sales Tax Exemption

The College has limited tax exemption from sales tax in the Commonwealth of PA and a few other select states.

Not all purchases qualify for tax exemption (e.g. materials, supplies, or equipment used in construction, reconstruction, remodeling, repair or maintenance of any real estate) and misuse of the tax exemption identification number could lead to fines or the loss of status.

Use of the College’s sales tax registration number for personal purchases is prohibited.

Please contact Purchasing for additional details
