Take special note here since this pertains to the 2015 return. Deductions and credits are claimed in the tax year they are actually paid. It does NOT matter what year was paid *for*. So if you paid for a 2015 class in 2014, then you should have claimed it on your 2014 return, and not your 2015 return. Likewise, if you paid for a 2016 class in 2015, then you DO claim it on your 2015 return, and you can NOT claim it on your 2016 return.
So pay attention to detail. What matters is the date actually paid, and not the date of the class that was paid for.
Generally, you can log into your college account and go to your financial section and get all the details and breakdown there. Even if you graduated already, if you can remember your login ID and password, you should still have access to your college account.
My daughter graduated 7 years ago, and can still access her accounts at FSU and at UCF.
