[quote=Anonymous]I looked at both and went with VEST. We did not go with pre-paid because it only gaurentees pre-paid for Va in-state schools. Although the money can be used at other schools, it will essentially be treated as if the money was just invested at a low interest rate. It also does not pay any lab fees, course-specific or optional fees, computers, books, etc. It is only tuition and mandatory fees. I would rather have much more control over my money than to feel locked into a state school in Va while still having to pay various fees. You can use VEST to pay for any expense related to college -including books and room and board. If you buy into pre-paid and your child receives a scholarship, it actually does not benefit you at all. [/quote]
