we paid around $1,000 in addition to her university in 2019 for the tiny bit that her scholarships didn't cover.
Based on the fact that her scholarship income for 2019 exceeded the qualified education expenses it was used to pay for, that "tiny bit" was apparently not a qualified education expense. But I suspec that $1K was for books, and that amount will reduce the amount of taxable scholarship income your daughter will pay taxes on. Remember, if your daughter is claiming the education stuff, then she claims "EVERYTHING" related to the education. You still claim her as a dependent, but you don't report anything concerning her education costs at all.
