Retirement

The University of California offers residents and fellows a mandatory Defined-Contribution Plan (DCP), administred by Fidelity: DCP for Safe Harbor Participants (PDF). In lieu of Social Security, 7.5% of pre-tax income is directed to your DCP. Additional retirement contributions can be made with a voluntary 403(b) or 457(b) plan though Fidelity.
