College Planning

For many people, funding a college education for a child or grandchild is a life-long goal. However, given that the cost of college tuition has increased by more than 40% over the last decade, this goal can sometimes seem out of reach.

And as the cost of a college education continues to rise, estimating the actual cost of your child or grandchild's education is difficult and requires disciplined savings and financial planning to make that education affordable.

• Gifting options of a UTMA/UGMA custodial account
