American Opportunity Tax Credit Permanence and Consolidation Act of 2015 Amends the Internal Revenue Code to replace the Hope Scholarship and Lifetime Learning tax credits with a new American Opportunity Tax Credit that: (1) allows an income tax credit of up to $3,000 of the qualified tuition and related expenses of a student who is carrying at least one half of a normal course load, (2) increases the income threshold for reductions in the credit amount based upon modified adjusted gross income, (3) imposes a lifetime dollar limitation on such credit of $15,000 for all taxable years, and (4) makes a portion of the credit refundable. Allows an exclusion from gross income of any amount received as a Federal Pell Grant.
