UW-Madison’s annual benefits enrollment period is happening October 5–30, 2026. Annual Benefits Enrollment is the only time you can make changes to certain benefits without having an eligible life event (for example, marriage, birth, or divorce) or qualifying employment change during the year.
Certain benefits (like High-Deductible Health Plans (HDHP) require re-enrollment each year.
