Question

Son dropped out of college after 1 month. Does he need to say he was a student for 2021?

He didn't get a 1098t from the school or anything for that matter.  Would it really matter if he said no? He or myself as the parent can't claim any education credits anyway.

    No.  To be a student he must have attended attended for part of any 5 months of the year.
