As a mother of three, the Education Fund has been a lifesaver. I started saving when my first child was born, and now that she's entering secondary school, we had enough saved to cover her fees without stress. The education cost calculator was incredibly accurate in predicting how much we would need.

What I appreciate most about this fund is the education resources they provide. The scholarship notifications helped my daughter secure partial funding for her university education, which complemented our savings. The direct payment option to the university also made the process seamless.

I started this fund for my nephew after his parents passed away. The flexibility of the plan and the excellent interest rate have helped us secure his educational future. The customer service team has been incredibly supportive in helping us navigate the guardian arrangements. Highly recommended for anyone looking to invest in education.

What educational expenses can this fund be used for?

The Education Fund can be used for a wide range of educational expenses including school fees, university tuition, boarding costs, textbooks, laptops and educational devices, school uniforms, educational trips, exam fees, and other educational materials. Any withdrawal for verified educational purposes is processed without fees.

Can I change the beneficiaries of the education fund?

Yes, you can add, remove, or change beneficiaries at any time. This flexibility is particularly valuable for growing families or changing circumstances. Each account can support up to 5 beneficiaries, and you can allocate specific portions of your savings to each child if desired.

What happens if my child receives a scholarship?

If your child secures a scholarship, congratulations! You have several options for your Education Fund savings: you can reallocate the funds to another child's education, convert a portion to a regular savings or investment account, use it for additional educational expenses not covered by the scholarship, or maintain it for future educational purposes such as graduate studies.

How accurate is the education cost calculator?

Our education cost calculator is regularly updated with data from leading educational institutions across Ghana and incorporates historical education inflation rates. It typically has an accuracy rate of 85-90% for projections up to 5 years and 75-80% for longer projections. We recommend reviewing your education savings plan annually to adjust for changing costs and educational goals.

Can grandparents or other family members contribute to this fund?

Absolutely! We offer a "Family Contribution" feature where multiple family members can contribute to a child's education fund. Each contributor receives their own access to view contribution history and growth, but only the primary account holder can authorize withdrawals. This makes it an ideal gift option for extended family members who want to support a child's education.
