Additional Benefits & Updates
2025 Open Enrollment is Here
November 1 – November 30!
Open Enrollment takes place from November 1st through November 30 each year and changes/elections will go into effect on January 1st.
- You will receive a notice in your Workday inbox with a “task” that will say “Open Enrollment”.
- Don’t forget that if you elect the Flex Account (FSA) you have to re-elect it every year to continue participating.
- If you are a participant in the HSA plan, make sure to update your contribution amount for the new pay frequency changes for 2025 (this affects monthly admin and faculty only)
- If you take the Medical Cash Out for not taking the Vassar sponsored medical coverage, you will need to re-elect that as well.
- Vision plans for 2025 will now be separate from your medical plans. If you need vision coverage for 2025 make sure to elect Aetna Vision during this enrollment period!
Did you have a baby this year? Get married? Move?
- This is also a great time to review your mailing address and/or who is listed as a beneficiary on any life insurance plans you may have.
- The end of year is not that far away and you want to make sure we have your current address for those end of year documents such as the W2.
