You need to provide a lot more info than that.  The recipient can have taxable income, regardless who is the beneficiary.  How about some numbers?

What are the qualified expenses?  Is the person claiming the student taking an education tax credit?  Is it AOTC?  How much is the tuition?  How much are books?  Still need more numbers, if you want to do it correctly.
