Loans/Hardship Withdrawals

Voluntary savings plans are designed for long-term retirement planning purposes and therefore employees should use other methods to save for immediate or short-term expenses. However, the UF 403(b) plans do allow for loans under very specific circumstances and according to the plans’ loan policy statements.

UF Health Center 403(b) plan participants may contact their investment provider for loan information.

Hardship withdrawals are not allowed.
