It doesn’t matter that he’s at a 2 yr school. He may claim the Hope credit as long as he is a freshman or a sophomore and enrolled at least half time. He can claim the credit twice.

I wasn’t quite sure in your wording who is claiming the credit? The person who claims the student on the return gets the credit. Usually that is the parent.
