Assuming your scholarship money is taxable, then report it as follows:

 

  1. In TurboTax online or TurboTax CD/download, after logging into your account, enter 1098-T in the search bar, upper right of screen.
  2. Select the option for 1098-T, and then select the jump-to link.  Even if you do not have a 1098-T, continue through the application as if you did.
  3. Enter your information.
  4. At the screen, Did Your Aid Include Amounts Not Awarded for 2022 Expenses, select no. 
  5. At the screen, Did You Pay for Room and Board with a Scholarship or Grant? Select yes and enter the amount of your scholarship which you believe is taxable income.  
  6. Continue through the remaining screens.  When you are done, your taxable scholarship amount will be entered on Schedule 1, line 8r as Scholarship and fellowship grants not reported on Form W-2.

Just for your information, scholarship money is taxable when it is used to pay for:

 

  • Room or board
  • Utilities
  • And other non-qualified expenses (including school supplies not listed as required in your program).

If your scholarship money was used for qualified educational expenses, such money would not be taxable.   Here is a link to a TurboTax article that addresses whether scholarships are taxable.
