When I put the scholarship in the box of "other scholarships", it cuts my refund in half. It was used only for tuition, fees, and required books. It was a scholarship through the school and did not show up on my 1098 T. In fact my 1098 T just has zeros in box 1 and 5, while box 2 is blank.

Are you sure you received a scholarship in 2017? Check your school account records. It sounds like the school may have billed in 2016 for classes that started in January of 2017. It also sounds like the scholarship paid for those classes in 2016. If this is the case, there would be nothing for you to report.
