Dependent child over 24

I have a child who is just over 24, does full time school, makes annually over $4,400 from work study pay which goes towards paying off-campus apartment, food, books, etc. I am chipping in for tuition along with her student loan. How do I show her as dependent? TurboTax marks her as independent as soon as I mention her over $4,400 salary.

 

Here's a rough breakdown of how the expenses are covered - 

 

Her work study salary - 20%

My support - 30%

529 account - 10%

Loan - 40%

 

Can I claim her as dependent?
