Withdrawals
1. How do I withdraw monies in payment for college?
      Each plan will have a specific procedure for withdrawing funds to pay qualified educational expenses. Some plans may require the program administrator to make payment directly to the college or university after receiving a bill or statement of expenses. Other plans may allow reimbursement for qualified out-of-pocket expenses, such as books, equipment, etc., with sufficient documentation. The program administrator will provide specific details on withdrawal procedures.
 
2. May the 529 funds be used to purchase a computer?
3. What if my grandchild is awarded a scholarship and doesn't need the money that I have put in the 529 account?
4. What happens to the balance if my child graduates from college and has money left over in his/her 529 account?
5. Is there a minimum time period during which the account must be held before monies can be withdrawn?
