Very likely not.  In order to qualify for an education credit or deduction, your school must be recognized as one of those accredited eligible educational institutions and also participate in a student aid program administered by the U.S. Department of Education.  Due to the stringent requirements, most of the online programs do not qualify. 

You can verify the information by going to https://ifap.ed.gov/ifap/fedSchoolCodeList.jsp 

(Click on the link under Federal School Code List and search for the school name)
