Plan Comparison Calculator

STRS Ohio and Nationwide Retirement Solutions have developed a plan comparison calculator to help you evaluate your retirement plan choices. The calculator can be a particularly useful tool for evaluating your plan options.

For example, by entering different estimates for the number of years you believe you will teach, you can see how the length of service affects your estimated monthly benefit for each plan. You can also experiment with different projected investment returns for a Defined Contribution or Combined Plan to see how estimated monthly benefits will differ among the three plans.

Please note: All estimated and projected figures are based on current rates, factors and laws — all of which are subject to change before retirement.
