Summary of Benefits

Collapse All Expand All

Adjuncts eligible for health insurance must complete enrollment at www.enrollingiseasy.com during our annual OPEN ENROLLMENT period.

Eligibility for health insurance is determined by number of courses taught within the measurement period (November 1 through October 31). HR tracks this information and contacts individuals prior to their eligibility date for coverage. Eligibility will be determined and adjunct employees will be notified via email. 

  • Health insurance coverage periods: January 1, if you are teaching in the spring semester; September 1, if you are teaching in the fall semester
  • Insurance is deducted from your 8 payroll checks pre-tax (per semester enrolled)
  • During the months you are not paid (i.e. January, June, July, etc) you will be billed by Human Resources Office
  • Once your coverage ends, you will be eligible for COBRA coverage for up to 18 months
