What is EdVest?
EdVest is Wisconsin's official college savings plan, offering an easy and flexible way to invest for higher education at colleges across the country. EdVest can help families put money aside for college expenses like tuition, books, and room and board.
How can I earn points toward private school tuition?
Investors in the EdVest plan can earn Tuition Rewards Points through the SAGE Scholars program. Each Tuition Rewards Point represents $1 in guaranteed tuition discounts at over 200 participating private colleges and universities. For example, if a student receives 10,000 Tuition Rewards Points, they are guaranteed to receive at least $10,000 in scholarships spread evenly over four years ($2,500 per year). Tuition Rewards Points are earned based on the balance of an investor's EdVest accounts.
NEW! Special offer – Double Rewards Points
As a special bonus, EdVest investors now earn double the Points on their EdVest account balance – 10% annually (applied at 2.5% per quarter), up from 5% annually. This offer is valid through December 31, 2011. As an EdVest customer, this benefit is available at no charge. You can also earn 1,000 bonus points per student registered with the Tuition Rewards Program.
See the list of SAGE member schools, or visit www.tuitionrewards.com for more details about the program. Students must be enrolled by August 31st of the year they begin the 11th grade, so don't delay!
