Your personalized College Savings Planner illustration helps you establish a realistic college savings goal and take
a closer look at how to pay for college using a tax-favored savings option such as a 529 program. The Planner will
help estimate the cost of attending colleges in various price ranges and help you consider how much you need to save
to meet various percentages of future costs.
If you haven't started saving, don't be discouraged. It is never too late to start saving for college and you don't
need to save the total cost. Most people rely on a combination of savings, current income and financial aid (including
loans and work-study) to pay for college. Saving now can reduce your borrowing later and increase your college selection
options.
