Claiming college-aged daughter

My daughter had lived with her mother in another state before graduating high school this year and moving to Texas to live with me to attend college. Her mother has claimed her each year under terms of our divorce agreement.

My daughter turned 18 in July and moved to Texas in August. Her mother intends to continue claiming her as a dependent as allowed by law as she is a full-time student. Is this allowable and would I have any grounds to challenge it? At the present time, who claims federal dependency affects my daughter's tuition rate.

Thanks for your help.
