Open Enrollment Tip: Don't Wait!

Don't Wait

The Benefits Open Enrollment period is October 6 – October 31, 2025!

Time tends to slip away quickly these days—please be sure to take action sooner rather than later. 

Important Reminders:

  • UWL has one Benefit Specialist to service the entire campus.
  • There is a new process for Open Enrollment
    • NEW this year -- you can access and make changes to your benefits throughout the entire Open Enrollment Period!  No more requesting the modules be 're-opened'!
    • This year, enrolling in your benefits may be a multi-step process.
      1. You will need a My Benefits account to access the benefits enrollment system. This is a one-time registration process that you must complete prior to enrolling in your benefits. For instructions, review Set Up Account in My Benefits.
      2. Log into Workday then go to Personal > Benefits and Pay > Suggested Links > My Insurance Benefits.
      3. Log into My Insurance Benefits using your My Benefits credentials. Then, review your current benefits/dependents and enroll for the 2026 plan year (October 6 – October 31, 2025, 4:30 pm).
  • Review the Open Enrollment information here.

As a reminder, this is an annual opportunity for benefits eligible employees to enroll in or make changes to most benefits for the upcoming calendar year. Benefits Open Enrollment is the only time you are eligible to make changes unless you have a qualifying life event, such as a family or employment status change.

Changes made will be effective January 1, 2026
