If you have already filed your tax return and you didn't claim education expenses,  you can file an amended return to claim it. But first you have to wait.

•  If the IRS rejects your tax return, all you have to do is make the changes on your return and refile.

• If the IRS accepts your tax return, wait until you receive your refund, or your payment is processed. Then, go to this link for instructions on how to file an amended return: https://ttlc.intuit.com/questions/1894381-how-to-amend-change-or-correct-a-return-you-already-filed This will not be available until some time in February of this year.
• Amended returns have to be printed and filed by mail.  It can take the IRS up to 12 weeks or longer to process them.   If you are due a larger refund than on your original return, your amended return should only show the difference and you will receive a separate check for it.  If you owe money on your amended return, it will show only the new amount owed, you will have to mail a check with the return.

I found this on another site. See second paragraph -

I e-filed my return and it was accepted by the IRS, but I received a new W-2 (W2). How do I change my tax return?
In order to change your return after the IRS has already accepted the return, you will need to do an amended return, Form 1040X. Sign in to your account and go to the amended/corrected tax return paragraph on the View Return Status and Print Copy screen. You will be able to start an amended tax return from that paragraph. We'll help you to prepare your Form 1040X amended tax return.

We recommend that you do not amend your tax return until after you have received your refund or paid the taxes you owe from your original return you filed. The IRS will often automatically make a correction to your tax return for missing or incorrect W-2 (W2) or 1099 forms. You do not need to amend your federal tax return if the IRS corrects the error when they process your original tax return. You will receive an IRS notice explaining the adjustment or asking for additional forms for documentation.
