    Even if box 8 of your 1098-T does not indicate that you were half time, you will be give  a chance, in the TurboTax interview, to override it and claim the tuition credit based on your actual half time status.  Even though you dropped the classes, you are eligible for the credit if you paid the tuition and were enrolled half time, or more, no matter how briefly.

    Box 8 of your 1098-T will tell you.
