After entering the 1098-T, you will be asked if you have book expense.  You need to answer yes to get to the screen to enter room & board. 

For more on 529 plan distributions, see https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/college-education/discussion/why-is-turbotax-thinking-i-owe-taxes-for-earnings-on-a-529-distribution-used-to-pay-for-qualified/00/1684897

 

You may be able to avoid entering the 1099-Q
