Question

I never received the American Opprtunity Credit for college students and I was a full time student from 2009-2013, why is that?

Were you claimed on your parent's return then; they may have claimed those credits?   You have to enter your qualified educational expenses on your tax return in the year you paid for those expenses in order to receive the credit.  And it is too late to file amended tax returns for those years.
