My 1098-T reduced the refund despite being less than tuition

In my 1098-T form, the tuition is $28,355.52 while my scholarship is $5,590.00. Clearly, the scholarship does not exceed the tuition and shouldn't be treated as taxable income.

 

However, when I enter the said information, my federal refund would go down from $2,600 to $1,900.

 

Could anyone suggest what should I do?
