No. You can not take the American Opportunity for more than 4 years, regardless of how long you attend school. This is a firm basic of this tax credit.

You will be asked to confirm how many years you have taken the AOC when using Turbo Tax. Once you indicate 4 , it will disqualify you from the AOC. Most likely, the Lifetime Learning Credit will be taken in its place.
