Born in 1996 as the Virginia Higher Education Tuition and Trust Authority, the Virginia College Savings Plan – or Virginia529 – has emerged as a premier 529 Plan in the country. What started as a vision for helping families pay for college via a prepaid tuition program has grown into the largest 529 plan in the country with nearly a quarter of the nation’s 529 assets. Our founding executive director and the Virginia General Assembly saw a need to help the families of the Commonwealth prepare for higher education in an affordable manner. Twenty years later, we continue to deliver by offering three flexible, affordable and tax-advantaged programs to enable families throughout the nation to pursue higher education. Located in Richmond, Virginia, Virginia529 is an independent state agency with a diverse team of very dedicated employees. Our growing agency thrives on innovation by employees who believe in our mission and work hard every day to ensure we are offering the best 529 options to our customers.
