Quick tax estimator, family of 4 married filing jointly, one child under 17, one 17 or over and student, $10,000 income. Refundable credit about $5,000. The college should see that on the tax form, so maybe send them a copy?

Sorry meant additional child credit.
Also maybe mention the gift from the uncle.
