*Terms and Conditions

In order to be eligible for Alumni Match (this “Promotion”), any participant must be: (i) an alumnus/alumnae from a member college of Private College 529 Plan (the “Plan”), (ii) a new account owner who has not previously owned a tuition certificate under the Plan, (iii) creating an account for a new beneficiary who was not previously named as a tuition certificate beneficiary under the Plan, and (iv) creating an account for a beneficiary who is 15 years of age or younger on the day their account is opened. A previous Plan beneficiary who is an alumnus/alumnae of a member college may be eligible for the incentive as a new account owner if all other eligibility criteria are satisfied.

This Promotion offers a dollar-for-dollar match on the participant’s initial contribution, up to $500. If multiple accounts are opened for the same beneficiary or by the same account owner for different beneficiaries, only the first funded account will qualify. Participation is limited to the first 500 eligible participants as determined by the Plan. Once this limit is reached, no further Promotion participants will be accepted. The Promotion will end on September 30, 2025, or earlier at the discretion of the Plan.

We may change these terms and conditions at any time, without notice, and any changes will take effect from the date of publication of the updated terms and conditions.
