Yes.  You will enter the EIN for your school.  You can find the EIN on Form 1098-T, which is furnished by your school.  You must use the information on Form 1098-T to claim education credits.

Log in to your school portal.  Most schools furnish the document electronically.  It may be listed under tax documents.
