At first you have to be sure that you are a full time student. A full-time student at a school that has a regular teaching staff, a regular course of study, and a regularly enrolled student body in attendance; or
A student taking a full-time, agricultural-related training course on a farm, given either by a school like that just described or by a state, county, or local government.
A full-time student is someone who is enrolled for the number of hours or courses the particular school considers to be full-time attendance. If so, you are eligible tax credits. Beside that you can fill W-2 form by using software that can help you to fill form without any error.

If you will be doing your own taxes, the tax software you use will walk you through the education credits. Follow the instructions exactly. What you can or can't claim varies per credit. You can also go to irs.gov and look up the different credits available and see what you qualify for.
