529 note: For high‑school students, many families fund tuition via 529 K‑12 rules (state rules vary). You can read more about these options on Unbound’s blog by clicking here. Always confirm with your plan administrator.
Generally: high‑school enrollment (Equip/Explore, and scenarios where a high school student enrolls early in Ascend) is often treated differently than post‑high‑school tuition. You can read more about these options on Unbound’s blog by clicking here. Always confirm with your plan administrator or a tax professional for your situation.
All programs include both installment plan and paid in full options. Paying in full will always be the lowest cost option, but installment plans offer more flexibility with monthly payment spread over 12 months.
