ALso, I've put details in an answer box in this thread, because I can't format it in a comment box the way it needs to be formatted. The important thing to note here, is that if your parents qualify to claim you, then when you file your tax return you must select the option for "I can be claimed on someone else's return". You won't claim any of the education stuff or get the self-exemption. But just the standard deduction alone will get all taxes withheld from your 2017 income refunded to you.
