An educational savings plan is designed to help families save for their children’s education, providing a structured and tax-advantaged way to prepare for the rising costs of tuition and other educational expenses. By starting early, these plans offer the opportunity to build a substantial fund, reducing reliance on student loans and ensuring access to quality education.
The cost of education continues to rise, with tuition for colleges and universities increasing annually. According to the College Board, the average cost of a four-year degree at a public institution is over $25,000 annually, while private colleges can exceed $50,000. For families without a clear savings plan, these costs often lead to heavy reliance on student loans, creating financial stress for both parents and students.
“The seeds you plant today in education will grow into opportunities for a brighter tomorrow.”
-Mrs. Verra Aza
Contributions and withdrawals are both tax-free irrespective of the type of educational expense.
Funds can cover educational or non-educational expenses without penalties, offering flexibility beyond traditional savings plans.
Starting early allows contributions to benefit from compound interest, significantly increasing the fund's value over time.
Unused funds can be reassigned to other children or converted into a supplemental retirement plan for the child later in life without any penalties and/or restrictions.
The tax-advantaged educational plan provides a flexible and tax-free financial vehicle for educational savings for parents who want to make college affordable and stress-free for their children. This is even more important today than ever as tuition for schools, colleges, and universities continues to rise. If you would like your child to go to any college, have flexibility with how the funds you save for education for your kids can be used, want penalty-free and tax-free access to your funds, then the tax-advantaged college savings plan is for you.
