Q. I paid for January 2020 semester in November of 2019. Shouldn't that amount be included in my Education credit calculation for 2020?

A. No.  

Although, in fairness, that should be allowed, it is not allowed by the rules.

However the rules do allow you to claim that payment on your 2019 tax return.
