My son got a w-2 for $1150.00 for work done at his college, does he have to file a tax return ( He is being claimed as a dependent as he is a full time student ).

He is not required to file a tax return for that amount of W-2 income. If he had federal income taxes withheld, he should file a return to get a refund. 

If he files a return, he must indicate on it that he can be claimed by someone else.

You do not enter his income on your tax return whether he files or not.
