Simple answer: yes.
But more of the scholarship will be taxable.
Using an example: School 1 1098-T shows $5,000 in box 1 and 0 in box 5. School 2 shows $6000 in box 1 and $10,000 in box 5. You can claim the $5000 from School 1 for the Lifetime Learning Credit (LLC) and you must pay tax on the $4000 of excess scholarship from school 2.
Alternatively, you may claim the maximum $10,000 of expenses for the Lifetime Learning Credit (LLC) . But, you must then report $ 9000 (4000 + 5000) of taxable scholarship income.
