Open Enrollment

The annual Open Enrollment is the period each year when you can make changes to the Annually-Selected Benefits that you are eligible for through Tufts University.  

The Open Enrollment period is typically held during the first two weeks in November, and changes made during this time will be effective the following January 1.

For details on Annually-Selected Benefits, and other benefits that you can change any time, please visit the main Benefits page, or Benefits For:

• Faculty and Staff
• Postdoctoral Scholars
• International Employees
• ACA-eligible Employees
