The Guaranteed Education Tuition Program, or GET Program, is a 529 savings plan administered by the U.S. state of Washington for residents of the state. As with any 529 plan, account owners invest in the program on behalf of a beneficiary – typically the owner's child or grandchild – in order to prepay for expenses associated with the beneficiary attending a higher education institution.
