Can I adjust my 2018 1098-T amount box1 to exclude a credit for class that I dropped in 1st semester 2018, paid in Dec 2017 but did not claim on 2017 tax return. ?

Yes, you can. Frequently, the number in Box 1 for qualified education expenses is different than what gets reported for a variety of reasons. The form itself doesn't always account for it all or sometimes overstates it.
