Room and board (R&B) are not qualified expenses for a deduction or credit. R&B are qualified expenses for a 529/ESA/QTP plan distribution.   To get the R&B expenses screen, you must first tell TurboTax (TT) that you took a plan distribution (usually that you received a 1099-Q).   Even then, you must answer yes to the book expenses question. R&B is on the same screen as books.
