Bright Start College Savings Plan

Saving for a child’s college education is one of the most important investments you can make. Children who have a college savings account are almost seven times more likely to attend college. Treasurer Frerichs is the trustee of Illinois’s three 529 college savings plans: Bright Start Direct - a plan that individuals can sign-up for and manage on their own – and Bright Start Advisor - plan that can be purchased through a financial advisor. Both plans are “qualified tuition programs” under Section 529 of the Internal Revenue Code.

Your contributions to Bright Start grow on a tax-deferred basis while in the plan and can be withdrawn tax-free for qualified higher education expenses. Qualified higher education expenses include: tuition, fees, books, supplies, room & board (if enrolled at least half time), and computers.

As an Illinois resident, you also enjoy additional tax benefits. Contributions are tax-deductible for Illinois taxpayers up to: - $10,000 per Illinois taxpayer - $20,000 for married Illinois taxpayers filing a joint return
