Education

thank you, very helpful.  But i still need to ask:  on the turbo tax form I am asked to state that the University of Edinburgh has an "exception" and does not need to send the 1098 -- is this true?  Are foreign institutions automatically exempt from having to send a 1098?  I have to say yes to this exception or TT doesn't let me claim the credit.  Is this the correct way to do it?
