Yes, you can only claim AOTC for years you are an undergraduate and a maximum of 4 times is allowed. Because much of the credit reduces your tax liability, it is good to use it when you have the full $4,000 of expenses and you made a higher income.
Do check with your parents because the IRS keeps up with how many times it has been claimed.
