Campus Review Deadlines 2025- 2026

The following dates reflect campus file deadlines for actions to be effective July 1.  Divisions should monitor file submission progress and regularly report file status to APS.  Pre-approval is required for files received in Academic Personnel Services beyond campus deadlines. 

Departments and Deans have established earlier due dates to meet campus review file deadlines. You should contact your department or dean’s office for further guidance and to discuss due date extensions.  In some cases, department or divisions may be able to extend their due date and still meet the campus deadline.    

Appointment Files:

While appointment files have no specific deadline, please be mindful of the following:

UC Intercampus Transfers: offer letters issued after April 1 for an appointment effective the following academic year to candidates who currently hold Senate faculty titles require the candidate’s current UC campus to agree to waive the recruitment deadline (see APM 510).

Initial Continuing Status and Continuing Appointments (Unit 18):  Per Article 7b of the MOU between the Lecturers Unit (IX) and UC the excellence review and determination of instructional need shall be conducted in the academic year in which the 18^th quarter of service occurs and shall be complete prior to the commencement of the 19^th quarter of service.

Continuing appointment files should be submitted no later than the start of a candidate's 18^th quarter to allow for sufficient processing time.

Probation Period & Review Files:

Departments and Divisions should be mindful of an Assistant rank appointee's probationary period when preparing a review file and give priority to such files where the candidate's probationary period expires at the end of the review cycle. These files should be submitted well before the established campus deadlines to allow ample time for the review process to conclude.  

Reconsideration of Terminal Notice:

Per PPM 230-220-82.e Reconsideration of a terminal notice must be received in APS no later than February 15 of the terminal year.

Deadline Non-Adherence

Failure to adhere to established campus review deadlines may result in the effective date of the review file action being deferred to the next academic year.
