Student Retirement Tab Content

If a student is working during any semester, and they are not enrolled in classes (6 hours for an undergraduate and 3 hours for a graduate), they are required to pay into the TIAA/CREF retirement. This usually occurs during the summer session.  The forms must be completed so you can designate beneficiaries and the direction of your investments.  Click here to see the forms and instructions.

If a student works 40 hours a week (full-time) during any semester, credit enrollment is not a factor, and they are required to enroll in retirement.

Upon graduation, a request can be made from TIAA/CREF to withdraw the funds paid in to the retirement fund if so desired.
