As answered above by user KatrinaB, the EIN for the school is a Federal ID number assigned to that school. That number is needed in order to enter information from your Form 1098-T and it should be shown on the Form 1098-T. It may be labeled as the 'EIN' or 'Federal ID' or something similar.
If you have a Form 1098-T without the school's Federal ID number, you should contact your school to ask for the number. Otherwise, you will have an error entering your information for an education credit.
