Why would I want to delete the 1098-T form when I'm in college and I have that form to fill out

You may not need to, but it might be a good idea to redo it and really look at the questions carefully in case a wrong answer is disqualifying you. You may actually be eligible or you may be eligible for the Lifetime Learning Credit, instead.

 

Please see this LINK that explains what you need to qualify for each.
