Investors can do better than New Hampshire's UNIQUE College Investing Plan. The Fidelity-managed plan lacks state tax breaks on contributions and fails to grant access to some of Fidelity's top funds. Its limited exposure to value-oriented and small- to mid-cap offerings also impedes portfolio diversification. The plan does have some redeeming qualities. It doesn't charge an annual account fee and its age-based options are reasonably priced, charging 0.50% for the index version and 0.77% to 1.07% for the actively-managed version. But investors needn't settle. We recommend looking at some of our favorites, including Ohio’s direct sold CollegeAdvantage plan, or, for the index lovers, Utah's Educational Savings Plan Trust instead.
