Tax Deferred Programs

Tax Deferred Investment Plans

Western Carolina University offers several tax deferred investment plans in which eligible employees may participate. The plans allow employees to reduce current taxable income while setting aside funds to supplement retirement benefits. An employee may enroll at any time by completing an enrollment form and a Salary Reduction Agreement. For more information, contact the Office of Human Resources (227-7218).
