Get Started

You can make your 2025 benefits elections beginning on Monday, October 28, 2024. 

To access your benefits, log into the Fordham University Portal, go to the Employee Page, click on My Fordham Benefits, then click on Benefitexpress to make your 2025 elections.

To maintain your current 2024 benefit selections, you don’t have to do anything.

However, if you want to contribute to a Healthcare Flexible Spending Account, Dependent Care Flexible Spending Account, or a Health Savings Account, you must make this election during Open Enrollment. These accounts will not roll over to 2025. 

During the enrollment period, you may change your benefit choices as often as you like until the enrollment deadline. Each time you make a change, you will see a Confirmation Statement outlining your updated choices. Your last confirmed choices, based on the date and time, will determine your coverage for 2025. 

Please carefully review your Confirmation Statement to ensure you have elected the right coverage for yourself and your dependents. Contact us immediately if you have made an error so we can help you fix it. No changes can be made after the Open Enrollment period ends.

All changes to your benefits must be made by the deadline of Friday, November 8, 2024.

If you are enrolled in the Health Investment Option for 2025 and want to contribute to the Healthcare Flexible Spending Account, you will be enrolled in the Limited Healthcare Flexible Spending Account, which is only for out-of-pocket dental and vision expenses. Your Health Savings Account can be used for out-of-pocket medical expenses.

For more detailed information about any of Fordham’s benefits, you can access our library on the Benefitexpress portal 24 hours a day/7 days a week.
