On this question: What portion of Box 5 is from VA Benefits and/or Tax Free Employer provided assistance.?, do you enter just the tax free portion of the employer provided assistance or the entire amount of the employer provided assistance.
Also, the difference between the $5250 and the $10000 was not included on the employee's w2.
You would only enter the tax-free portion. However, the employer payment very well may not be on Box 5 of the 1098-T, so be sure you know how the college came up with the amount in Box 5.
Are you sure the W-2 does not show the other $4750 of payments for schooling? If so, you may need to contact the employer for a corrected W-2.
