The amount you put away every month into your college savings account should be based on your personal financial situation and the projected cost of college when your child will attend. Once you use our College Cost Projector to determine your future college costs, you can create a personalized saving strategy within our College Planning Tool for every child in your family. We also have an 11-step checklist that can help you determine the amount your family can start to save on a regular basis. View that list here.
