3. Length of the Review Process Appointment proposals from academic units and Faculties generally continue to be very good, and department Chairs/school Directors have been very helpful in providing any additional information requested. Advance notice of proposals continues to be important to ensure speedy turnaround. Policy 76 specifies five working days for the review process. During the past year, UARC members were able to complete most reviews within five working days unless there was some missing information and discussions with the Chair/ Director or Dean were required.
