Get your taxes done using TurboTax

It is possible that your scholarship income, as reported in box 5 on your Form 1098-T, was more than your education expenses, as reported in box 1. When that happens, you have to pay tax on the difference, since scholarship income is taxable if it is not used to pay for education expenses.
