Open Enrollment—the annual period for Syracuse University employees to enroll for benefits or update their current choices—ends today, Friday, Nov. 9. This is the last day for faculty, staff, graduate assistants and fellows, and part-time instructors eligible for benefits, to elect or change their coverage, unless they undergo a qualifying life event during the year.
You still have time to enroll or make changes by going online and accessing your benefits information through MySlice at myslice.syr.edu. Remember: If you plan to participate in a health care or dependent care Flexible Spending Account for 2013, you must designate your contributions now during Open Enrollment.
All elections made during Open Enrollment will be in effect from Jan. 1 through Dec. 31, 2013.
Complete information about the Open Enrollment process, employees’ benefit options, and how to enroll is available at the Open Enrollment web site: openenrollment.syr.edu.
