If I remember correctly, you can file form 1040NR, not 1040NR-EZ, find the "itemized deduction " to fill your expense. For student, education related expenses (tuition, books, computer, software, job related travel expenses) are qualified for deduction. But, you do need to keep the receipt for IRS. My friend was asked for receipt at the same year after he filed Tax. Without receipt his claim was denied.
