This portfolio is an option if you seek a balanced, low-cost approach to investing.

 

The University of Alaska Portfolio offers the Alaska 529 tuition-value guarantee,** which allows you to purchase UA tuition credits now for future use. Your portfolio contributions are tracked and reported to you in both their monetary and corresponding UA tuition credit values. With this guarantee, you do not need to face the uncertainty of predicting future UA tuition, and it ensures that your child’s tuition costs will be covered regardless of future tuition increases. If your child attends a school other than UA , you can still take advantage of the full monetary value of your account.

 

Since the University of Alaska Portfolio locks in the current tuition value at the University of Alaska, it can be a good choice if you believe your child may attend UA. However, this investment option can be used to save for virtually any college in the country if you choose.
