Deductions & credits
You say box 1 (of the 109-T) shows amount of $35,472 and box 5 shows $34,709. At first glance, you only have $763 (35,472-34,709=763) of qualifying expenses to use to claim the Tuition credit. It takes $4000 of expenses to get the maximum tuition credit.
You also say the scholarships included board and room. Scholarships that pay for room &board are considered taxable income, and go on the student's return.
The TurboTax interview can handle all this, but it can be tricky.
