403(b) Supplemental Retirement Plan

Appalachian offers a very competitive and comprehensive 403(b) plan offered in conjunction with the University of North Carolina, TIAA CREF, and Fidelity Investments. Employees may choose from pre-tax savings 403 (b) plans as well as take advantage of new Roth 403(b) products from either TIAA CREF or Fidelity Investments. This is strictly a supplemental retirement plan and no employer match is available under any 403(b) plan. To get started saving towards your retirement:

  1. Please review the 403(b) plan booklet.
    • This provides complete instructions on how to enroll with either Fidelity or TIAA CREF.
  2. Complete the Salary Reduction Agreement, then forward it back to Human Resources in Founders Hall.
