The University of Alaska: a quick portrait.

The University of Alaska educational system spans three separately accredited urban universities in Anchorage, Fairbanks, and Juneau and includes a dozen community campuses, from Ketchikan in Southeast Alaska, to Kotzebue, in the state's far north.

The University of Alaska president reports to an 11-member board of regents. Chancellors for each of the urban campuses - University of Alaska Fairbanks, University of Alaska Anchorage, and University of Alaska Southeast in Juneau - report to the board via the president. Directors of community campuses, in turn, report to their appropriate chancellor.

The system enrolls over 32,000 students studying among the 430 programs offered, everything from certificates and associate's degree programs to bachelor's, master's, and doctorate degrees.

About the Education Trust of Alaska.

The Education Trust of Alaska was established under the Alaska College Savings Act and administers the UA College Savings Plan. It authorizes the University of Alaska, through its Board of Regents, to serve as Trustee for the Plan. Through the Plan, the Trust offers three separately marketed 529 college savings plans: The University of Alaska College Savings Plan, marketed directly to investors within Alaska (www.uacollegesavings.com); The T. Rowe Price College Savings Plan, nationally marketed directly to investors (www.price529.com); and the John Hancock Freedom 529 Plan, nationally marketed through financial consultants (www.johnhancockfreedom529.com).

The Trust was established on April 20, 2001, with a Declaration detailing the duties and responsibilities of the Trustee. The Declaration was amended and restated effective January 1, 2002.

If you are not an Alaska resident, you should compare this Plan with any 529 college savings plan offered by your home state or your beneficiary's home state and consider, before investing, any state tax or other benefits that are only available for investments in the home state's plan. You can call 1-866-277-1005 or visit the forms section of our site to request a Plan Disclosure Document, which includes investment objectives, risks, fees, charges and expenses, and other information that you should read and consider carefully before investing.
