Maybe, it depends on a couple things. Can you tell me how old your daughter was on Dec 31, 2025?  She only has to attend school for part of at least 5 months during the year so if she had classes from May 30-Sept 1, that counts as 5 months and makes her a full-time student.  Did she get a 1098-T from the school and does she have tuition paid in box 1 that is more than any scholarships or grants listed in box 5? And finally, is your income on your return over $180,000?

 

Once I have that information, I can advise you better.
