Look at Worksheet 1-1 in the link your provided.  The result of that worksheet is the only thing you need to report.   From your description, the result should be zero and there is nothing to report on the tax return. (i.e. the QEE exceeds the scholarship income).

 

Unlike W-2s or 1099's, form 1098-T does not ncessarily need to be reported on a tax return.
