401(k) Retirement Plan

The College offers a 401(k) Plan to part-time and full-time employees.

The Retirement Plan for Employees of Saint Michael’s College (401(k) Plan) is a defined contribution plan. All regular part-time and regular full-time employees are eligible to make a voluntary, pre-tax contribution to the 401(k) Plan.  This benefit is available immediately upon employment and is not contingent upon eligibility.   To begin making a voluntary, pre-tax contribution to the 401(k) and for investment option information as well as the current maximum allowable contribution, please go to www.millimanbenefits.com.  

Employees become eligible to receive a College contribution to the 401(k) Plan after they have completed one year of service (1,000 hours).  Employees enter into the plan on the first day of the quarter following one year of service.  The College contributes an amount equal to 10% of an employee's base wages.  The employee may choose among a variety of investment options.  Employees are immediately vested in the plan.
