Yes. You qualify as a full-time student if you began your semester in January and graduated in May. You must be a full-time student for any part of five calendar months of the year. Any part of the month is considered the entire month. You would qualify as a qualifying child on your parent’s tax return if you were under 24. Otherwise, you would be considered a qualifying relative.
