AMERICAN GENERAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY COLLEGE INSURANCE PLAN

As a college junior, senior or graduate student, you realize that you are making an investment today in your financial future. Like most students, you probably know that it makes sense to protect your bright future with life insurance "when the time is right."

But the time to start a life insurance program is always now... today.

Sooner or later, most of us buy life insurance, BUT THE LONGER YOU WAIT TO START A PLAN, THE MORE PREMIUM IS NEEDED BY THE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY. In the meantime, you miss the opportunity to start building a life insurance cash value fund that could be available to you for meeting opportunities and emergencies in the future.

If you wish, you can even start a plan now but defer the start of premiums until after your graduation date, when your earnings should increase.

You can have a free gift of your choice -- with no obligation on your part -- simply by allowing us to show you an idea that can be to your advantage. You, of course, will be the sole judge of whether our College Insurance Plan (CIP) is the best life insurance plan you've ever seen.

For your free gift, simply check the item of your choice on the enclosed card, and ma i1 it tod ay.
