Tuition for Spring 2021

I was not enrolled in college during 2020. However, I applied for graduate school for Spring 2021 and paid the tuition in December 2020. I do not have a 1098 form as I do not qualify to receive one. Can I claim the paid tuition on my 2021 taxes?

 

Just to add, when I attempted to claim this, it asked questions as if it was assumed I was enrolled at some point during the 2020 school year. Example, asking if I was enrolled full-time, part-time etc.
