If you entered the wrong student, you'll have to delete all the education info and start over. Go through the entire education interview until you reach a screen titled "Your Education Expenses Summary".  Click delete next to the student's name.  You'll then get the "Your Education Expenses Summary" screen again.  Click the "Add a student" button.

Your son must have been previously entered as your dependent, in the personal info section.
