Standards for the Appointments, Promotions and Tenure (APT) process at UNC-Chapel Hill are governed by the Trustee Policies and Regulations Governing Academic Tenure at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, in addition to the School’s Appointments, Promotion and Tenure Manual (linked below).

The APT Committee (PDF) meets regularly, on a monthly basis to review appointment, reappointment or promotion actions that meet the criteria necessitating an assessment, as outlined in the APT Manual. Members of the APT Committee represent various academic disciplines within the School and are appointed by the dean for three-year terms.
