College Savings Plans
529 college savings plans, named after the section of the tax code that governs them, are fast becoming a college savings solution. Money saved may be used at any accredited US college or university and for all qualified higher education expenses, including room and board.
Saving for higher education may be the most valuable investment you make for the future. When you start saving may be even more important than how much you save, because even small sums can grow over time. Depending on your school choice, you may be able to save enough to pay for all of the tuition, or you may use this account to supplement financial aid and loans.
Most 529 savings plans offer a menu of stock and bond funds, and some also offer age-based portfolios with professionally managed asset allocations. Calvert Investments manages the DC College Savings Plan which is the only 529 plan in the country to offer a full range of sustainable and responsible investment options.
