Faculty Contract Election

  • Current permanent faculty (anyone being paid on a 9x9 or 9x12 contract) can switch to the other pay schedule for AY24-25. They may change their election through their employee portal. The deadline to do so is EOD July 11, 2025. This is a hard deadline; the contract type cannot be changed after this date. For guidance, please see the Employee Services Website.
  • New permanent faculty (including those who started in spring 2025) should fill out the contract election form and submit it to HRSC@colorado.edu.

Action Items

Please reply to HRSC@colorado.edu by EOD May 19, 2025, with the names of anyone who should be placed on short work break (SWB) over the summer. Anyone with an expired spring 2025 contract who is not placed on SWB will be terminated.
