Can I take the American Opportunity Credit?

The las conditions states as follows:

- A full-time student over age 18 and under age 24 at the end of 2016 and you earned income was less than one-half of your support?

I am a part time student at a community college and the 1098-T forms states in line 8: "check if at least half-time student" that box is checked.

i am concerned with the words "full-time student". I am considered a full-time student for tax purposes?
