Then she can't deduct the supplies.





The books and supplies part of the tuition deduction means that if you receive an itemized bill from the school and they charge you separately for supplies, you can still claim them.





As far as the school goes, did they give her an 8917?If my friend pays for tuition to get Nail license, can she deduct nail supplies?
Only as a business expense if she is in that line of work. The supplies for the course are not deductible.
