WHAT: As students head back to the classroom, it’s an ideal time to consider investing in a child’s college education. Comptroller Peter Franchot and College Savings Plans of Maryland Interim Executive Director Andrew Friedson will be visiting the Annapolis Regional Library this morning to encourage families to participate in the College Savings Plans of Maryland (CSPM).
The CSPM has two Section 529 plans that help alleviate the increasing burden of rising tuition costs and reduce future reliance on loans. The Maryland Prepaid College Trust locks in tomorrow’s tuition at today’s prices and the Maryland College Investment Plan offers a variety of investment portfolios and flexible contribution amounts. Both offer federal and Maryland state tax incentives. Students may use their account at nearly any accredited college nationwide.
