Whether you can claim this deduction depends on 1. If your children can still be claimed as dependents on your tax return and 2. How many years and what kind of college education expenses you've claimed in prior years.  There is a cap on the number of years they can be claimed and if you've done one type, you typically can't switch over to a different type the next year.
