This comprehensive resource equips financial advisors with the latest insights and data to facilitate meaningful conversations with clients about saving and investing for college. Featuring clear, compelling charts and data, the guide helps advisors debunk myths about education costs and encourage informed financial decisions.

"College planning is becoming increasingly complex, with trends showing a rise in tuition costs, evolving financial aid landscapes, and diverse saving strategies," said Tricia Scarlata, Head of Education Savings for J.P.

  • Escalating College Costs: College tuition has surged by an average of 5.6% annually since 1983, significantly outpacing other household expenses and underscoring the urgent need for families to plan ahead.
  • Financial Aid Realities: Despite the rising costs, financial aid has not kept pace, with families now shouldering 48% of college expenses from their income and investments, up from 38% a decade ago. There is limited coverage for grants and scholarships, which often pay only a small portion of college costs.
  • 529 Plan Utilization: Despite the benefits of 529 plans, including tax-advantaged growth and withdrawals for qualified education expenses, 63% of families are not utilizing these plans, missing out on potential savings and growth.
  • Tax-Advantaged Options: 529 plans offer additional tax-advantaged options for more control and flexibility, such as making five years' worth of tax-free gifts in a single year and tax-free rollovers to Roth IRAs, with minimal impact on financial aid eligibility.
  • Education Savings Investing Strategies: Emphasizing the importance of starting early and staying diversified, the guide illustrates how small increases in investment returns can significantly impact education funds.
