Probationary Reviews for Tenure-Eligible Faculty and Continuing Status Faculty

For probationary faculty the annual review contains an assessment component addressing progress toward promotion and tenure/continuing status.

For more information on the third year review see UHAP 3.12.04 .

UHAP 3.12.04 requires that a candidate be given notice when the matter of his or her renewal, nonrenewal, tenure and/or promotion arises, and that the candidate also be given the opportunity to furnish materials that he or she considers relevant to the decision.

Heads and directors are required by UHAP 3.15 to advise candidates in writing of their recommendation regarding renewal, nonrenewal, or promotion and tenure at the time the recommendations are forwarded to the next review level.

Within the college, all third-year reviews must be completed at the local level no later than December 15. By that date all heads and directors must forward the departmentally reviewed dossiers to the associate dean.

All third-year reviews, as well as promotion and tenure dossiers, are to be prepared in accordance with the Associate Provost for Faculty Affairs' guidelines concerning dossier preparation.
