Target Enrollment Portfolios

Families have different education plans, savings objectives, and time horizons. With a simplified approach to investing, saving for your student’s education goals has never been easier.

Target Enrollment Portfolios are a simplified approach to college investing. We have designed these investment options to allow you to select a Portfolio based upon your risk tolerance and your Beneficiary’s anticipated year of enrollment in school or an eligible program. For example, if you expect your Beneficiary to attend college beginning in the year 2036, you may consider the Target Enrollment 2036 Portfolio. You may also consider a Target Enrollment Portfolio with an earlier target enrollment date if you are a more conservative investor, or a Target Enrollment Portfolio with a later target enrollment date if you are a more aggressive investor. The asset allocation in these Investment Options is automatically adjusted quarterly over time to become more conservative as your Beneficiary gets closer to enrollment.

All investing is subject to risk, including the possible loss of the money you invest. Investments in bonds are subject to interest rate, credit, and inflation risk. Investments are not guaranteed or insured.

The Income Portfolio and Interest Accumulation Portfolio both invest in the Vanguard Short-Term Reserves Account which, in turn, invests in Vanguard Federal Money Market Fund. The Vanguard Short-Term Reserves Account could lose money by investing in the Vanguard Federal Money Market Fund. Although the Fund seeks to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it cannot guarantee it will do so. An investment in the Fund is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. The Fund’s sponsor has no legal obligation to provide financial support to the Fund, and you should not expect that the sponsor will provide financial support to the Fund at any time.
