Rank Promotion Eligibility Paths

Refer to the Rank Promotion Eligibility Paths to determine your eligibility for rank promotion.  Faculty who are in their first multi-year contract, regardless of length, are not eligible for rank promotion.  Faculty who are eligible to apply for rank promotion should discuss their readiness for rank promotion with their dean before submitting a Letter of Intent.

Eligible faculty are strongly encouraged to apply for rank promotion at the same time they undergo contract reappointment evaluation. In these cases, faculty may use the same evaluative materials for both processes. Faculty who elect to apply for rank promotion during a rank promotion eligible year outside of the contract reappointment evaluation year may not use any prior evaluative materials.
