Top 10 Performing Direct-Sold Plans

Alaska’s T. Rowe Price College Savings Plan was the only plan that ranked in the top 10 for all four-time periods. However, California’s ScholarShare 529 took the no.1 spot for overall performance.

SFC noted that Pennsylvania’s 529 Investment Plan dropped off the list as it “changed out all of its age-based portfolios.” These top direct-sold plans also are ranked by their performance averaged across all time periods.
