Find The Right 529 Investment Plan For You

While deciding on the best 529 investment plan for your family, we make it easy to get started. If your 529 investment preferences or goals change, you can ​exchange your options two times per year.

Starting is easy. Choose from a number of ready-made portfolios or create your own portfolio from individual investment options, including FDIC-insured banking options. We partner with leading investment managers, Vanguard, Dimensional Fund Advisors, Fifth Third Bank, and BlackRock (Advisor Plan) to bring you the best options.
