You can treat the payment made in 2021 for the spring semester as having occurred in 2021 even though it is not stated as such on the form 1098-T. When you enter the form 1098-T in TurboTax, you will see an option that says What if this is not what was paid to this school? under the Box 1 entry. Check that box and you can adjust the amount of education expenses reported on the form 1098-T.
