Benefits guide — Retirement

The university has a comprehensive retirement program to assist faculty and staff in accumulating wealth and ensuring financial security at the end of their careers. The program offers multiple retirement plans and free financial education on campus and retiree benefits when retiring from ASU.

Arizona statutes require all benefits-eligible employees to enroll in a mandatory retirement plan within the first 30 calendar days of their hire or eligibility date. Non-benefits-eligible employees may be required to participate if they work at least 20 hours per week for 20 weeks in a fiscal year. Exceptions may apply.  

The voluntary retirement plans are available to all ASU employees, including non-benefits-eligible employees, undergraduate and graduate student employees, and non-resident aliens. —
