Thanks for your reply. Understood for the scenario where no school for the year is marked as half-time. The other scenario, is if my child is half-time at one school for the semester in a calendar year, but attended some other schools at less than half time as well.
It seems like the guidance given in the posting below is that if one school for the year is marked as half-time, the tuition payments made to other schools that were not at half-time status can be credited as well, since the student was considered a half-time student for at least part of the year. The tuition paid to these other schools also qualify for the AOC credit. That allows students who take a summer class at another school to include those for AOC credit as well.
The requirement is that you attend as "at least" a half time student for "at least" any one semester that started in the tax year. ..... There is no requirement to attend each college as "at least" a half time student. .....So for your tax purposes you'll be fine indicating on the 1098-T where you only take one class, that you were enrolled "at least" half time.
