Form	Purpose
Account Application	The Connecticut Higher Education Trust (CHET) offers three types of account ownership: Individual, Custodial Account for a Minor, or Entity Account. Please read the Disclosure Booklet and Participation Agreement carefully before opening an Account. Be sure to choose the type of Account that is appropriate for you. Individual Account Use this form to open a CHET account by an individual (typically a parent, grandparent, family member or friend). See a sample completed form (PDF, 226KB). Custodial Account for a Minor (UGMA/UTMA) Use this form to open an Account under the Uniform Gifts to Minors Act (UGMA) or Uniform Transfers to Minors Act (UTMA). Unlike other types of accounts, a custodial account owner is acting purely in a representative capacity for the minor beneficiary, who is the legal owner of the account. Please read the Important Information about Custodial Accounts for a Minor, contained in the Account Application for a Custodial Account, before opening this type of account. You should also be aware that funds deposited into this type of account cannot be transferred or rolled over to another account owner or beneficiary. See a sample completed form (PDF, 216KB).
