My employer is reimbursing me $5,250 the first week of 2018 for tuition expenses incurred in 2017. Can I apply that benefit for the 2017 tax year since that was when tuition was paid? I am eligible for another $5,250 by my employer for tuition incurred in 2018 so do not want to take both in the same year.

That is a tax free employer benefit ... you will not report it as income on either tax year. It will however reduce the amount of expenses you paid out of pocket which will reduce your education credit.
