Is childs college tuition tax deductible

I filled out the 1098T while doing my return. I ended up with the standard deduction. However, I paid over $12000 in college tuition for my daughter in 2018. Wasn't I entitled to some sort of tax credit for this?

If you pay out of pocket expenses for any qualified education expenses, you should be entitled to an education credit. It is a benefit in addition to the standard deduction. See Education credits.
