No, you will not enter your 1098-T as a W2.

Follow these steps to correctly enter you 1098-T:

  1. Click on the "Federal Taxes" tab at the top of the screen
  2. go to "Deductions & Credits"
  3. Click on "Show More" to the right of "Education"
  4. Click "Start" next to "Expenses and Scholarships (Form 1098-T)"
  5. continue following the onscreen guide.
