No.

The 1098-T is only an informational document. The numbers on it are not required to be entered onto your tax return, unless you are claiming a tuition credit or reporting taxable scholarship. Neither apply in your case.

I didn’t get a 1098-T since my school wasn’t required to give it. Do I need it for taxes? As a college student, do I have to report my college expenses?
