My son was a college freshman. In 2016, He received $2,500 to pay for tuition and I helped to pay $1,700. He also got $1,600 housing aid from college to pay for room and board and I paid another $3,500. TurboTax only asks how much of that $4,100 (2,500+1,600) was used to pay for room and board. Why it won't ask for that for tuition?
