The University of Michigan offers a two-for-one match of
your retirement plan contributions — if you contribute
5% of your eligible gross salary, the University will contribute
an amount equal to 10% of your eligible gross salary. Your
retirement contributions are vested immediately. In addition
to your Basic Retirement Plan contributions, you can establish
a Supplemental Retirement Account, offering you even more
income available to you upon retirement.
See Eligible Compensation for examples of compensation that are eligible to be deferred under the University of Michigan Retirement Savings Plan.
**Please note, deadlines have been updated for 2008.**
