Apparently the IRS got her's first, which makes the problem worse.
You can no longer e-file. You will have to mail in your tax return. You WILL claim the tuition credit, because she is (I assume) your dependent. If she is not your dependent, you need to explain why not*.
In the mean time, she needs to file an amended return, unclaiming the tuition credit and checking the box that says she can be claimed as a dependent. She should not amend until her original return is fully processed. But you do not need to wait for that to happen; you can mail your return now.
* It's highly unusual for a college student not to be the parent's dependent. Even when not the dependent, the student is still (usually) not allowed to claim the tuition credit. There's a new urban myth among college students that says they can get a $1000 from the government just for filing a tax form. For most of them, they simply aren't eligible. It is usually best if the parent claims that credit.
