Please go back to the education section

Click Federal, Deductions & Credits, scroll down to "Education".

Click Edit next to your daughter's name and walk through the interview.

This should land you on the "Here's your education summary" page.

Click "Education Information", go through this interview and the last page should show what amount of expense is being allocated to a credit. Adjust if desired.
