Conclusion

403(b) Supplemental Retirement Account

All full-time and part-time staff and faculty may choose to set up a separate Supplemental Retirement Account for additional retirement savings.

The Supplemental Retirement Account is a voluntary plan, funded entirely by your contributions.  You will elect a specific dollar amount to have deducted from your paycheck.

There are two options:

1.  Elective Pre-Tax Contributions

2.  Elective After-Tax Contributions
