Q.  What if my parents entered my 1098-T? Do I need to enter it too?

A.  No.  Since you are their dependent (I assume), they are the only ones who can claim the education credit. 

 

If the box 5 amount exceeds the box 1 amount, there is a chance tat you have some taxable scholarship and then you would need to enter it either instead of your parent or in addition to.
