The site www.morningstar.com offers a more in-depth and critical analysis of all the 529 plans. From home page, click on "College Saving" under "Personal Finance" at the bottom of the page. You'll have to register, but it's free. Under "529 Data," you'll find detailed information about each of the plans, including which funds they invest in. You can also compare plans, plus read a lot of smart Morningstar commentary. Articles include "Are 529 Plans All They're Cracked Up to Be?" and "Extreme College Funding."
The National Association of Securities Dealers (a trade group) also runs a 529 website. From www.nasd.com, click on "Investor Information" in the top right corner, then "College Savings Center." You'll find information about all the different ways to save for college, as well as information about educational tax credits (tax info is also at www.irs.gov). There's also a great "Expense Analyzer," which lets you type in the specifics of the plans you're looking at to see how they stack up to each other.
The states' individual 529 plan websites have tons of information
about
their own plans, obviously, but they also often have added features, such
as "tax advantage calculators." These show residents of that state the full
effect of the tax benefit. Here are a few examples:
