Are there any fees associated with opening a Path2College 529 Plan account?
There are no sales charges, start-up or maintenance fees. The only fees for a Path2College 529 Plan account are the total annual asset-based fees which include the annual asset-based management fee that will be paid to TIAA-CREF Tuition Financing, Inc. (TFI) to cover the cost of investment management, administrative services and the underlying fund expenses. TFI is an affiliate of TIAA-CREF Individual and Institutional Services, LLC and Teachers Personal Investors Services, Inc. (TPIS), the distributors of the Path2College 529 Plan. This fee is computed at an annual rate of less than one percent (ranging from 0.49 to 0.75%) of the average daily net assets of your account (excluding assets held in the Guaranteed Option). The Guaranteed Option provides a guarantee of principal and a minimum rate of interest to the Board of the Georgia Higher Educations Savings Plan but not to account owners or beneficiaries.
