You can leave your money in the 401(k) when you quit or change jobs.

You can roll it over to another plan or you can withdraw from your 401(k), but there may be an early withdrawal penalty, and you will have to pay taxes on the full amount.

If you got a check you had 60 days to put that in an IRA, if you choose to do so.
