September 2024

September is National College Savings Month. At my529, that means it’s time for Utah students to make their mark — and possibly earn a college scholarship in the process.

Students can create an original bookmark for the 2024 my529 Make Your Mark contest for a chance at a $2,000 my529 college savings scholarship account from my529 and the Utah System of Higher Education.

Utah students enrolled in kindergarten through 12^th grade — or home-schoolers — are eligible to take part in Make Your Mark. The contest runs September 1 through September 30, 2024. Eight total winners will be selected, with two winners chosen within each of four grade categories (K-3, 4-6, 7-8, 9-12). Previous Make Your Mark winners are not eligible.

Click on the Make Your Mark logo above for a downloadable entry form with rules for the contest.

To enter:

• Design your bookmark in the blank space on the entry form using the art medium of your choice.
• Completely fill out the Student Information box on the entry form.
• Submit your entry to my529 by 11:59 p.m. MT, September 30, 2024.
• Submit your entries via mail or WeTransfer, a free internet-based file transfer service, at my529.wetransfer.com.

We will also be voting for the top three designs at school, and having them printed for students to use.
