If my child started college and lived in her dorm part of the year, what do I put for the question about if your child lived with you for the full year?

Full year.....the time at college is considered to be temporary.

The time lived with you question is commonly an issue for folks who may share their dependent's time with their ex's  (divorced or never married parents).
