Tuck it away with your tax records and proof that the money was used for education. Your goal is to maximize the education credit if you qualify. Please read another post of mine for a potential increase in refund.
IRS Publication 970, Tax Benefits for Education states:
If the entire 1099-Q went to qualified expenses, room and board, tuition, etc then you do not need to enter the form. Tuition paid for the first 3 months of the next year also qualify, see page 12, What Expenses Qualify, and page 52 for qualified distributions.
