Open Enrollment is your annual opportunity to evaluate and make changes to your Willamette University benefit elections including your health insurance, dental insurance, life insurance, and medical and dependent care flexible spending accounts. Open enrollment starts Monday, February 12, 2024. All changes must be submitted by Thursday, February 29, 2024 at 5:00 pm. Benefits will be effective April 1, 2024. Remember, you may elect to make changes to your retirement plans as well as the commuter spending account outside of the open enrollment period.
