My student started college in Jan 2019. I received a 2018 1098-T for tuition in Dec 2018. How do I enter this in Turbotax since he wasn't a student during 2018?

You can deduct amounts paid in a tax year, for an academic period beginning in the first three months of the next tax year.  The 1098-T should have box 7 checked in the circumstance you describe. (see screenshot for entry)

Enter the 1098-T using the following instructions. https://ttlc.intuit.com/replies/4194409
