    I am a college professor. What many students don't understand is that the full ride is conditional upon the student being able to maintain a minimum GPA and number of hours per semester (usually around a 3.5 and 12 hours). Most students will lose those scholarships by the end of the second year, if not sooner, which is a win for the school because they must start paying tuition. Even dropping one class due to low grades can cause students to lose the scholarship. Don't cash that money out so soon, keep it handy in case she needs it later. Also, I would definitely give her a stipend for her hard work since you have the money anyway.

      The beneficiary of the account is listed as the distribution recipient if either (1) the distribution is paid directly to an educational institution, or (2) the distribution is paid directly to the listed beneficiary. Otherwise, the account owner (presumably the parent) is listed as the distribution recipient.
      From there, if the distribution is "non-qualified" (meaning that the funds are not used to pay for qualifying educational expenses), the earnings portion is included in the gross income of the distribution recipient. It is also subject to the 10% penalty unless it is a non-qualified distribution made on account of death, disability, or a scholarship.

The benefit of it is that the 529 isnt needed for her and her siblings can benefit from it so that all the kids can start off with zero debt. The whole point of family is to help each other.

    Just to let you know caller, my middle son got a full ride, but Sophomore year he moved into a house, (lease of course) with friends. You may want to pump the breaks on what to do with the money until she knows what she's doing about housing Sophomore - Senior year. My son also attends a private college. I'm also not sure you factored in her getting to and from school, holidays and so on. It also cost the wife and I car rental storage and hotel for visits. Not only that, but covid hit and I had to make the unexpected trip to bring him home and store his belongings. Yes, do follow what Dave says, but have the money on hand for it's original plan. I'm not being judge mental at all, but it seems to me you have washed your hands and moved on to the next kids in line. So, forgive me if I sound judge mental, it's just what I thought I heard you saying. Great job to you and yours.

Do you know it takes a young person a long time to save $100,000 in retirement? Imagine the power of transferring her college money to her retirement and letting it grow through 5 years of college and first 9 years of her career. At 7% growth she could have $340,000 and have a great start on life. In fact I don’t know what people don’t do this regardless.

      Criminology studies typically just lead to a career in being a detective.
      Pair that with biology though, and you could MAYBE find something a bit better paying.

    Dave didn't listen to this guy, so ride when he does this. The caller had to repeat himself, with Dave talking over him. Dave should do better.
