Massachusetts tuition deduction

I was an undergrad in the spring then graduated and then was a graduate student in the summer while at the same Mass. university.  The 1098T shows total tuition paid in 2021 for both degrees and box 9 is checked that I am a graduate student in 2021.  However, I was only a grad student in the 2nd half of the year.  Because box 9 is checked, turbotax assumes I was a graduate student for the entire year, and therefore will not calculate the state tuition deduction (which is only allowed for undegrad tuition).  Should I just override (i.e., say the box is unchecked) and then type in the undergrad portion of my tuition?
