529 College Savings Plan
Fall 2025 Health Insurance Charges
Health insurance charges will not appear on student accounts until early August due to a new vendor system. Charges will be posted before bills are issued on August 14. The timing of the charge will not affect your coverage. If you intend to waive coverage or select supplemental coverage, you can find instructions on the health insurance requirements website.
Inform the investment group or financial advisor responsible for initiating payments of the tuition due date a few weeks in advance because processing times vary.
To figure out the one-year costs for your 529 plan, visit the Office of Financial Aid's Cost page for direct and indirect expenses to include in your estimate.
