ALTERNATIVE TYPES (and subgroups)

of FINANCIAL AID

In addition to the primary sources of financial aid (loans and scholarships), other kinds of aid are available to many students. These other types of aid fall into eight broad categories:

1. Free Scholarship Lotteries

2. Federal and State Government Aid

• Section 529 Plans: Prepaid Tuition Plans and College Savings Plans

Section 529 plans are state-sponsored college savings programs. The two major types are Prepaid Tuition Plans, which lock in current tuition rates, and State College Savings Plans, which offer more flexible investing options. Both are useful ways for families to save for their children's college education.

• Scholarships for Volunteering and Community Service
