Why a MNSAVES 529 Plan?
Your plan is financial aid friendly
Your 529 account is typically viewed as a parental asset for financial aid purposes and may count less against aid eligibility than the same funds held in your child's name.1
Your child has options
For MN taxpayers, savings can be applied to any eligible college or university across the country and abroad, as well as technical or community college.
You have more control
You're never locked in and can withdraw your funds for any reason at any time.2
You enjoy more flexibility
Funds in your child's account are transferable to another eligible family member, which includes siblings, stepchildren, parents, even first cousins.
