    • This form is filled out when a faculty member is coming in with a probationary period. The maximum probationary period is seven years. A faculty member can get credit toward tenure from another university if they were in a tenured or tenure-track position. To figure the date for mandatory consideration you take the calendar year plus the probationary service and subtract two. For example: a person is being hired in 2004 with 7 years probation. You take 2004, add seven years, which equals 2011, and then subtract two years, which equals 2009. The individual will need to go up for tenure in the academic year 2009-2010. (See tenure and promotion guidelines for additional information on tenure.)
