Education

There is no "other" box/line on the W-2.  Sometimes there will be a memo in box 14 or one of the box 12 lines. That is usually just informational and does not affect your tax return. The real question is was that amount also included (on top of your wages)  in the box 1 amount? Usually not.  if it was, then the tuition was paid with your money and you can claim the tuition credit.
