Get your taxes done using TurboTax
Yes, if you are saying that in 2024 6,369 posted in Box 5, but the tuition that this will cover is for the first three months of 2025 and the tuition for those three months are not on Form 1098-T, yes you can allocate that 6,369 to 2025.
If entering in TurboTax, use the option of "Part of the scholarships in Box 5 are not for 2024" however if you are not applying for an education credit, and the turion is all covered by a tuition reduction, and there is no excess scholarship, you needn't enter Form 1098-T.
Keep in mind that next year the 6,369 on the 2025 1098-T for the tuition your allocating to this 6,369 cannot be claimed a second time.
Box 1 on the 2025 1098-T would need to have Box 1 reduced by 6,369.
Keep a copy of the school statement with the student's tax file.
