Abstract

Abstract With approval from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), student federal tax clinics may be operated by law schools or graduate accounting programs. Currently there are 17 student federal tax clinics approved by the IRS. The graduate accounting program at the University of North Texas (UNT) was the first graduate accounting program permitted to operate a clinic and is currently one of only three accounting programs in the nation that operate a clinic. The program allows graduate accounting students to represent taxpayers before the IRS at the audit and appeals conference. This article demonstrates how tax clinics provide an excellent means for interactive learning while helping students and professors keep abreast of practice issues. Information on establishing and operating an accounting student tax clinic is provided as well as a list of current tax clinic participants.
