The University of Denver is proud to offer a comprehensive benefits package to employees holding an appointed position that is at least half time (20 hours per week). Many of the plans also offer coverage for your eligible dependents.
You and your dependents are eligible for The University of Denver benefits plans on the first day of the month following your date of hire into an appointed position. If your hire date occurs on the first of the month, your benefits may start on your hire date or the first of the following month.
Eligible dependents include:
- Your legal spouse, including common-law and civil union, and domestic partner (both same and opposite sex).
- Your child who is less than 26 years of age. Children include your natural or legally adopted child, a stepchild, the child of your domestic partner, or a child who is less than 26 and has been placed under your legal guardianship.
- Your child, who satisfies the above definition of child, age 26 or older, and who is mentally or physically incapable of earning a living, and is primarily supported by you.
You can make changes to your benefits during the annual open enrollment period in May for a July 1 effective date, or within 30 days of an IRS Qualifying Life Event.
