Why TurboTax is not allowing American Opportunity Credit

Hi,

I am a full time student and did internship during summer.

After entering the details in my 1098-T, Turbotax is showing that I don't qualify for AOC.

 

Reasons given:

Your enrollment status was less than half-time.
You weren't enrolled in a degree program.
You're under age 24 and don't support yourself. You're claimed as a dependent on another person's tax return, like your parents.
You're filing as married filing separate.
Your income is more than $90,000 ($180,000 if you file a joint return).

 

None of those are correct. I am full time student. I am enrolled in a degree program. I am under 24 and not claimed as a dependent on my parents return (i confirmed with them). I am filing single and income is less than $90,000 (obviously!).  

 

I don't understand why I don't qualify.  Please help. Thank you.
