Did you pay 'out of pocket' (or with loans) for Education Expenses?
If so, you could qualify for an Education Credit, but you need to enter your Tuition Paid and amount of Scholarships/Grants in TurboTax.
If not, you don't need to enter anything in the Education Section.
You can enter your expenses without a 1098-T, if you indicate that you 'qualify for an exception'.
After you enter the school name in the Education section, you will be asked if you received a Form 1098 from this school. Answer NO and you will be asked to enter the qualified expenses on the next screen.
This includes all expenses whether paid by you, a loan or a scholarship/grant. Your scholarship/grant amount will be asked for later and will reduce the qualified expense amount.
Expenses paid for with school loans are the same as being paid by you and may qualify you for a credit.
