SUPPLEMENT DATED NOVEMBER 20, 2012
TO THE FUND'S PROSPECTUS
DATED DECEMBER 1, 2011
 

USAA Asset Management Company (AMCO) has committed recently to growing its internal equity management capabilities with respect to the USAA Funds and approved the termination of two of the Fund's current subadvisers, Loomis, Sayles & Company, L.P. (Loomis Sayles) and UBS Global Asset Management (Americas) Inc. (UBS). As a result, AMCO has added three new portfolio managers to the USAA Growth & Income Fund (the Fund) in addition to the two current subadvisers, Wellington Management Company, LLP and Barrow, Hanley, Mewhinney & Strauss. The AMCO management team will manage the assets attributed to it in a manner consistent with the Fund's existing investment objective and strategy.

As a result of these changes, all references to Loomis Sayles and UBS have been deleted on pages 6-7 of the Fund’s prospectus.
 
As a result of these changes, the following information has been added under "Portfolio Manager(s)" on page 6 of the Fund's prospectus:

John P. Toohey, CFA, Vice President of Equity Investments, has co-managed a portion of the Fund since November 2012.
 
Wasif A. Latif, Vice President of Equity Investments, has co-managed a portion of the Fund since November 2012.
 
John B. Jares, Assistant Vice President, has co-managed a portion of the Fund since November 2012.

AMCO
 
AMCO's portfolio will typically consist of 50 to 80 holdings with a focus on mid- and large-cap stocks. We will employ a fundamental bottom-up approach to identify companies that, offer superior growth potential, improving fundamental business trends, and trade at a discount to intrinsic value. We believe this will result in a portfolio that is primarily focused on the potential for capital appreciation.

As a result of these changes, all references to Loomis Sayles and UBS have been deleted on pages 17-21 of the Fund’s prospectus.
