Teppie Answers Your 529 Frequently Asked Questions

Have a question about saving for future
education expenses with a 529 plan?
Teppie would love to answer them for you.

    A 529 plan typically has a minimal effect on financial aid, but it varies by situation. Federal financial aid is a needs-based award and is determined by the cost of attendance (the total amount school will cost for one year) and the expected family contribution (based upon the income and assets of both the parents and the student).

    Saving using a 529 plan can help students finance a debt-free education. Student loans need to be paid back, while 529 plans offer the opportunity to save as little or as much as you like, tax free, and reduce or eliminate the need for debt like student loans..

    As much as you are able! The cost of college continues to rise, including tuition, housing, food and supplies, so it’s important to begin saving as soon as possible. It’s never too early or too late to start.
