The mission of the Michigan Education Trust (MET) is to protect Michigan families from rising tuition costs by providing wide and affordable access to state institutions, and to encourage elementary and secondary school students achieve high standards of performance, enabling them to attend state institutions to pursue higher education.

The Michigan Education Trust (MET) is a guaranteed tuition program which allows parents, grandparents, and others to prepurchase undergraduate tuition. MET offers three tuition savings choices: a full benefits plan, a limited benefits plan, and a community college plan. MET provides families with a state tax deduction and a way to invest in the future at today's prices. By investing a fixed amount today, a "nest egg" is created which grows in value during the years between the initial investment and the individual's admission to college. Learn more >

The Office of the Michigan Education Trust also oversees the administration of the Michigan Education Savings Program (MESP). MESP offers families many benefits in saving for future college education costs including flexibility in using the saved funds, broad choice of investments, low minimum contributions, a State of Michigan matching grant, and much more.
