Tuition reimbursed by employer

We receive a tuition reimbursement from my Union (I work and am in grad school). I dont receive that check until after I show them an official school transcript, so it's always a few months after the semester ends by the time the school AND union get all of the paperwork settled and there's a check in my hands. Do I apply a reimbursement check received in early 2017 to my 2016 taxes, since it's for the fall 2016 semester? Or do I apply it to next year's taxes?
