Why investing for college is important  Why is investing for college important?  College can help a child or grandchild have a brighter future  Reduces reliance on student loans  Uses time and the power of compounding to your advantage  Keeps your options open by planning ahead

Will you have enough for college? Costs based on estimate of average tuition, fees, and room and board in current dollars for 4-year public and private universities according to the 2011 Trends in College Pricing published by the College Board. Projected pricing assumes a 6% annual increase in college costs. The rising costs of a four-year college  Tuition, books, room & board add up quickly $210,873 $454,439 Public University Private University

The power of planning ahead $ $ $0 $50 $100 $150 $200 $250 $300 $350 Monthly InvestmentMonthly Loan Payment Advantage of Investing vs. Student Loans $165.56/month *Assumptions: Total cost of college $25,000; 8% annual return on investments and 8% loan interest rate, compounded monthly; 10-year investing period and 10-year loan payback period. Annual return does not represent the performance of any tomorrow’s scholar portfolio. Invest now or borrow later: To cover $25,000 in college expenses, investing for 10 years before college is a lot cheaper than paying back loans for 10 years after college.*

A program of regular investment cannot assure a profit or protect against a loss in a declining market. This hypothetical illustration assumes an average annual return of 8%. Annual return does not represent the performance of any specific investment. Regular contributions of any amount can really add up over time. This chart shows an account with monthly contributions over a 10- year period. $125 per month $250 per month $500 per month Putting time on your side

The power of tax-deferred growth Compare the growth potential of a taxable investment vs. a tax-deferred 529 account This hypothetical illustration shows the growth of an annual investment of $5,000 made at the beginning of each year. It assumes a 28% tax bracket and an annual return of 8%, compounded monthly with a tax rate of 15% for dividends and long-term gains and 28% for short-term gains. The chart is for illustration only and does not predict or guarantee the performance of any tomorrow's scholar portfolio. Investors should consider their personal investment horizon, as well as their current and anticipated income tax brackets when making an investment decision.

One size does not fit all In-state vs. out-of-state plans  State tax treatment of 529 plans varies from state to state and can be a factor in deciding which plan to select  Some states offer a 529 tax deduction for state residents; others might offer a tax credit for 529 contributions  Understand the value of your state's tax deduction  In some cases, the tax deduction benefit may be offset by performance, contribution limits, and other plan features that are important to you

Estate planning benefits  Can gift up to $65K ($130K married couple) per child in one year without incurring gift and generation- skipping transfer taxes, provided no other gifts are made to the same beneficiary in the 5-year period  Contributions to the plan qualify for the $13K ($26K married couple) annual gift tax exclusion  Contributions are considered removed from the donor’s estate* *If donor contributes more than $13,000 in one year and elects to apply the gift tax exclusion ratably over 5 years but dies before the close of the 5-year period, the portion allocable to calendar years beginning after the date of death is included in the decedent’s estate.

Grandparents $520,000 Grandchild 1 $130,000 Grandchild 2 $130,000 Grandchild 3 $130,000 Grandchild 4 $130,000 Decrease your taxable estate while paying for college Grandparents can get involved too The gift tax exclusion can be very powerful. In this example, a grandfather and grandmother each provide 4 one-time gifts of $65,000 to 4 grandchildren. The $65,000 gifts are prorated over five years and a total of $520,000 is removed from the couple’s taxable estate.
