If you paid an eligible education institution, they should provide to you their EIN number.
Call the school's administration office or student aid office to get that number. It might also be listed on their website.
The student should have an online student account. Check that online account to make sure the payment was posted in 2020. That online account might also hold the 2020 1098-T for the student.
