You might be thinking of the tuition & fees deduction - $4k cap, it's
addressed in Pub 970.
As you've found there's a bunch of possible tax benefits to juggle. It's
important to do some planning to the extent you have control over how
much income you realize in a given year, because a higher AGI can
disqualify you from a tax benefit.
