HEALTHCARE AND OTHER BENEFITS
HEALTHCARE AND OTHER BENEFITS
Colgate prides itself on the scope and quality of the benefits offered to our employees. Every attempt is made to meet essential needs on a competitive basis while maintaining fiscal responsibilities. In 2021, the American College Personnel Association (ACPA) and Diverse: Issues in Higher Education acknowledged Colgate as one of the Top 30 Promising Places to Work in Student Affairs.
Within the Dean of the College (DoC) Division, new staff colleagues are provided with a mentor to help with the transition to Colgate. In addition to formal orientation programs for new staff that are offered by the University, DoC staff meet monthly as a division and have regular interactions with the senior leadership of the division, regardless of position within the division.
The Colgate Benefits page was designed to provide basic descriptions of the types of benefits available for Colgate employees. A downloadable employee benefits brochure is available at that site.
Links to our insurance providers, other benefit providers, and retirement plan vendors can be found at the Colgate Employee Benefits page.

STAFF HOUSING LOAN PROGRAM
STAFF HOUSING LOAN PROGRAM
The university maintains a limited fund that is used to provide housing loans to benefitted employees on the regular payroll. The loan program is designated to assist individuals in the initial purchase of their primary residence. The program provides loans up to a maximum of $20,000 for the purchase of a home within the Hamilton school district, unless there are specific needs not well served by the Hamilton School District. In these cases, staff employees may, upon applying for the loan, request to be considered for the benefit for a home purchased outside the district.
