As a condition of employment, full and half time employees make a 2% of base pay mandatory contribution into a 403(b) retirement plan. In turn, the university will contribute 4% of an employee's base pay into the plan. Employees have the option of contributing an additional 1% or 2% of base pay into the 403(b) retirement plan. ACU will then contribute a corresponding 2% or 4% of an employee's base pay into the plan. This retirement option gives participants the freedom of allocation changes and a three-year cliff vesting.
