My child attended two different colleges during the fall semester, which was their first semester for the year. Both schools consider 12 credits as full time. I presume that either would consider 6 credits as half-time. If my child took 5 credits at each school for a total of 10 credits total for the fall semester between both schools, can they be considered as half-time with regards to AOC credit? In this case, both schools issued a 1098-T for the year and neither had box-8 checked, because each school recorded less than half credits taken. However, when combining credits from both schools my child has taken more than the minimum half-time credit. They also took a class in the summer that also did not have box 8 checked. Can they include all 3 1098-T for AoC that year?
In another situation, if they took 6 credits at one of the colleges and had box 8 checked on at least one 1098-T, are they able to include the1098-T statements from all schools for the year as part of the AoC credit?
