Morningstar rates Ohio's 529 plan as "Top 5" college savings plan in the nation
Morningstar Inc., a leading provider of independent investment research, has named Ohio’s CollegeAdvantage 529 direct plan as one of the top five college savings plans in the nation in a report that was released April 23, 2009. In reviewing the Ohio direct plan Morningstar stated that “the strong investment options, low costs, and good flexibility make this plan tough to beat for Ohio residents.” In rating each state’s 529 plan, Morningstar focused on features such as fees, investment quality, asset allocation and flexibility. The Morningstar report can be viewed online by visiting www.morningstar.com.
Morningstar also prefers Ohio’s innovative plan structure, stating “the Ohio Tuition Trust Authority not only created the plan, but it also manages it directly. This setup is rare in the 529 universe and it gives OTTA more freedom to choose from a variety of mutual fund families, such as Vanguard, PIMCO, GE Asset Management and Fifth Third Bank (for CD options.)”
CollegeAdvantage is offering a “Spring Refer a Friend Program” where you can earn $50 for your account for each enrollment until June 30, 2010. For a limited time, CollegeAdvantage is once again offering the popular Refer a Friend Program. You can earn a $50 referral bonus each time your friends and family open a CollegeAdvantage account. To encourage your friends and family to get started saving for college, they will also earn a $25 referral bonus just for opening the account. But don’t wait; this offer is for a limited time only. Friends and family must open an account by June 30, 2010 in order for both of you to receive the referral bonus. The referral bonus will be applied directly to your designated CollegeAdvantage account. If you are interested in opening an account, send me an e-mail at spendless2savemore@gmail.com and I will forward a referral to you.
