No one can see your screen or your tax return so we cannot find your mistakes for you. But if you are getting a "million dollar refund" you must have some misplaced decimals or extra zeros. You will have to check the amounts of income you entered and check the amounts you entered from boxes 2 and 17 of your W-2's. As for a college student and the child tax credit---you lose the child tax credit when the child turns 17. After they are older than 16, you can get the non-refundable $500 credit for other dependents.
If your daughter lived away at school --that is called a "temporary absence" from home and you can still say she lived with you the whole year.
Do not e-file the return until you have found your mistakes and corrected them.
