I'm Retiring, Faculty

Begin Your Retirement Journey


Waterfall web Image The information provided in this section is exclusively for all 91²Ö¿â faculty members who are considering retirement. 

Feedback from some of our recent retirees has helped us identify parts of the retirement process that could be made easier for our valued employees to navigate. In response, we have created this website where you will find the forms, applicable polices and contact information that you need to get this process started. In addition, we've included tips and insights from recent retirees based on their own experiences.

We hope that you find this information helpful as you make this important life decision. 

Please let us know how we can help by contacting Faculty Affairs at vcourie@kent.edu.

Please Note: Faculty retiring under the University Faculty Separation Plan (UFSP) will have different terms based on their signed UFSP agreement.

  • Do not get sick payout (This is paid out as part of the UFSP incentive).
  • Returning to work prior to the payout of the UFSP incentive is not allowed.
