Education

If your scholarship income was used to pay for your tuition, then it would not be taxable, assuming your curriculum qualifies as allowable education expenses, which is typical.

 

Normally, the tuition would be reported in box 1 and the scholarship income in box 5. I don't know why it wasn't reported, but it shouldn't have anything to do with you being a graduate student.

 

You can report the income and scholarship when you do your form 1098-T entry in TurboTax, but if the income is not taxable and you don't get a credit for the tuition, it won't show on your tax return.
