Claiming my niece who is a nonresident alien

My niece arrived on a student visa last yr (july 21) to live with me and she is a nonresident alien with an SS# that allows her to work inside the college. She didn’t get her SS# until today so I did not add her as a dependent on my taxes.

She is a Colombian national.

Can I ammend my 2024 taxes to add her as a dependent? If not, can I claim her in 2025?
