How to Begin the Process of Retiring
- SET A RETIREMENT DATE.
Employees should determine an official last day for retiring from the university. Many will notify and/or establish their final retirement date with their department before contacting us to make an appointment. - SET UP A RETIREMENT CHECKLIST MEETING.
Once your final date has been established, University Benefits would like to meet with you, approximately six to eight weeks out from your last day of work. When you are ready to meet with one of our Sr. Benefit Specialists, please fill out the online Request a Retirement Meeting form.
