Upon eligibility, the institution begins contributing to a tax-deferred annuity administered by Teacher's Insurance and Annuity Association (TIAA) and/or College Retirement Equity Fund (CREF). The institutional contribution is based upon the stated annual salary but is over-and-above this salary. Contributions continue throughout employment and earnings accumulate on a tax-deferred basis. No personal contribution is required.

Upon eligibility, employees will be automatically enrolled. A followup enrollment welcome packet will be sent from TIAA-CREF for the employee to complete investment allocations and beneficiary information. Manage and explore your retirement investment options through the Moravian College TIAA-CREF Employer Microsite.

Moravian ministers under call may be required to remit the institutional contribution to the designated provincial church pension plan.
