Congratulations on taking an important step - starting to save for the student in your life!
Please choose from the below options to put your education savings plan into action:
- Use our interactive map tool to compare 529 plans and find the right one for you.
- Start by reviewing your home state's plan (there may be special tax incentives for residents).
- If your home state does not offer special tax incentives, you may want to consider the benefits of another plan (you're not limited to participating in your own state-sponsored plan).
- You may also consider the Vanguard 529 College Savings Plan.
- If you choose to enroll by using this link and select an automatic contribution option, then the plan’s minimum contribution amount of $3,000 is waived.
For more information about any 529 college savings plan, contact the plan provider to obtain a Program Description, which includes investment objectives, risks, charges, expenses, and other information; read and consider it carefully before investing. If you are not a taxpayer of the state offering the plan, consider before investing whether your or the designated beneficiary’s home state offers any state tax or other benefits that are only available for investments in such state's qualified tuition program. Vanguard Marketing Corporation serves as distributor for some 529 plans.
All investing is subject to risk, including the possible loss of the money you invest.
