I paid for my Fall 2021 semester in August 2021, and my Spring 2022 Semester in December 2021. On my 2021 taxes last year I was able to claim all of the $2500 credit (tuition was $7000 each semester). Even though I finished school in 2022 is it true that I'm not able to claim the credit on this year's taxes? Am I out $2500 because I paid my tuition two weeks before 2022? really kicking myself for paying $14000 in 2021 when I could have just waited a bit to maximize the credit and get $2500 each year, it all came out of pocket so this hurts :(
