Question about education credits for taxes?

Does anyone know how long you can file back taxes for concerning this credit? one of my friends has been a student for a really long time and never knew about the Hope credit or lifetime credit, or any education credit because he uses turbo tax. Anyway, trying to help him figure out if he can put in a claim for credits on previous tax years. Anyone know?

    You may amend a tax return within three years of the original filing deadline to receive any additional refund to which you might be entitled.
