5.3.4 Timing for Pre-Tenure Review

The pre-tenure review process will be conducted for candidates as follows:

• No prior credit toward tenure – during the third year of service at the university.
• One year of credit toward tenure – during the second year of service at the university.
• Two years credit toward tenure – during the first year of service at the university.
• Three years credit toward tenure – during the first year of service at the university.

In cases where candidates have been granted credit toward tenure, consideration may be given to supporting documentation related to work done prior to joining the faculty at the university, particularly with reference to effectiveness in teaching and scholarship.
