Cite as 38 Miss. Admin. Code Pt. 2, R. 10.2
Application . Any individual desiring to enter into an MPACT Contract on behalf of a
Qualified Beneficiary must submit a completed Application to the State Treasurer. The
Application will be considered incomplete and will not be accepted unless it is accompanied by
the Application Processing Fee described in Rule 12.2A. The MPACT Application Form is
hereby incorporated by reference.
By completing the Application and submitting the Application Processing Fee, the Purchaser is
making application to enter into an MPACT Contract. The MPACT Application will become
part of the formal Contract between the MPACT Program, on behalf of the Board, and the
Purchaser. After review and acceptance of the Application by the State Treasurer, the Purchaser
will be mailed a Participation and Payment Schedule. Both of these documents become part of
the formal Contract between MPACT and the Purchaser.
To be complete, an Application must be accompanied by the Application Processing Fee and
must contain all of the information that the State Treasurer determines is necessary for proper
administration of the enrollment process. The MPACT Contract will be valid at such time as the
State Treasurer accepts the Purchaser and Beneficiary into the Program and transmits a
Participation and Payment Schedule to the Purchaser.

Rule10.3 Naming the Qualified Beneficiary. Unless specifically exempted by the State Treasurer
a Purchaser must name the Qualified Beneficiary in the MPACT Application at the time the

The Purchaser does not have to designate the Postsecondary Institution that the Beneficiary will
attend until such time as the Qualified Beneficiary matriculates and in accordance with Rule
11.4. If more than one (1) Purchaser has submitted an Application for the same Beneficiary, the
State Treasurer will determine which Application is accepted on behalf of the Qualified
Beneficiary.
