Effective July 1, 2023, UCI’s new online review system, ScholarSteps, fully replaced AP Review in the 2023-24 review cycle. While AP Review has served us well at UCI, the system has been replaced because the technology that it was built on is no longer being supported.
ScholarSteps can be used for all senate and non-senate review actions except:
- Appointments
- Career Equity Reviews
- Non-Reappointments
- Reviews representing split appointments (split schools/departments).
- Reviews for individuals that would require a surrogate Chair, Dean, etc. particularly if:
- A Dean or Chair’s faculty appointment is under review or;
- the individual’s partner holds a Chair/Dean position within the same department/school.
Note: For all other review files that require a surrogate dean or chair, the ScholarSteps review file bundle can be provided to the surrogate faculty administrator outside of the system, and their letter can be uploaded by the analyst on their behalf into Scholar Steps.
