TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – At a time when families nationwide are facing rising costs and financial uncertainty, Florida continues to stand apart for its commitment to affordable higher education. To help families take advantage of this moment, the Florida Prepaid College Board announced today a limited-time April incentive that rewards families for starting early.
Families who enroll in a new Prepaid Plan between April 1-30, 2026, will receive a $50 contribution directly into their new college savings account. Enrollment is available online at MyFloridaPrepaid.com.
Florida Prepaid College Plans allow families to lock in future college tuition and fees at today’s prices—providing certainty and protection from inflation, market volatility, and rising education costs.
“This is a unique moment for Florida families,” said Kevin Thompson, Executive Director of the Florida Prepaid College Board.
“A Prepaid Plan shields your family from the uncertainty of inflationary pressures. Once you lock in a plan, your price never changes. Not with rising costs. Not with market swings. Not with policy shifts. It is one of the few guarantees left in the rapidly evolving world of higher education.”
Plans are guaranteed by the State of Florida and offer flexible options that meet families where they are—whether starting with a single year of coverage or building toward a full degree. Once a family enrolls, their plan price never changes, offering long-term stability in an uncertain economic environment.
The $50 incentive is available for one month only and applies exclusively to new Prepaid Plan enrollments between April 1-30, 2026.
Families can learn more, explore plan options, and enroll online at MyFloridaPrepaid.com.
