What is the normal time between merit and promotion reviews, i.e., how often will I be reviewed?
The normal period between merit reviews is two years at Assistant rank and Associate rank Steps I-III, and three years at Associate Steps IV-V and full Adjunct Professor rank. Promotion to the Associate rank entails a career review of the period since terminal degree, with particular emphasis on accomplishments since appointment to Assistant rank in the series. Promotion to full title (i.e., to Adjunct Professor) entails a review of the whole period spent at Associate rank. The specific salary range and years at rank/step are listed on the University-wide Academic Salary Scales, Table 1 for Professorial rank, Academic Year, linked from the Vice Provost–Academic Personnel webpage.
