Create Your Plan


Step 1.  Choose your payment plan

Lump Sum Plan

A "pay as you go" plan

  • Buy units whenever you want and contribute any amount of money you choose.
  • Buy between 1 and 500 units, including partial units, for each child.
  • Pay the unit price in effect at the time we receive your payment. The unit price may increase on May 1 and September 1 every year. 

You must hold your units for at least two calendar years before you can use them.

Custom Monthly Plan

A defined monthly payment plan

  • Lock in a monthly payment that stays the same throughout the term of your contract.
  • Select a contract between 50 and 500 units for each child. 
  • Lock in the current unit price. Your contract includes a 7.5 percent finance charge.

To use your units, your contract must be paid in full and your account must be open for at least two calendar years.

Can't decide? Save through both plans

Open a Custom Monthly Plan account and buy Lump Sum units at any time. When you mail us a check, tell us whether to apply the money to your Custom Monthly payments or a Lump Sum purchase.

The GET unit price includes a premium over current tuition. Consequently, you should plan to hold your units for at least two years before you can expect to see any real gain.


Step 2.  Choose your payment method

Payment coupons
  • We send you a book of payment coupons when you enroll unless you set up automatic withdrawal or payroll deduction.
  • You send us a payment coupon with your check or money order by the 15th day of every month for the Custom Monthly Plan or whenever you have a little extra cash for the Lump Sum Plan.
Automatic withdrawal
  • Money is withdrawn automatically from your bank or credit union account and deposited directly into your GET account. 
  • To set up withdrawals, complete an automatic withdrawal authorization form.
  • Payments will come out of your bank or credit union account on the 15th day of each month.
Payroll deduction
Online payments
  • You can transfer money from your bank directly to your GET account through our electronic bank transfer system.
  • US Bank charges a $1 processing fee for each transaction. Call or email us to learn more.
Credit cards and debit cards
  • You may use a credit card or debit card to pay the one-time enrollment fee only.
  • You cannot buy units or make a payment with a credit card or debit card.
