Education

As my TurboTax colleague VanessaIA responded to a similar question:

"A full-time student is a child who during some part of each of any 5 calendar months of the year was enrolled as a full-time student at a school, or took a full-time on-farm training course given by a school or a state, county, or local government agency. A school includes a technical, trade, or mechanical school. It doesn't include an on-the-job training course, correspondence school, or school offering courses only through the Internet."https://taxmap.irs.gov/taxmap/pub17/p17-155.htm#TXMP172a931f
