Reviewing Requests for Sabbatical Leave

All sabbatical leave applications are now processed through Interfolio, the same platform the University uses for the annual review/promotion and tenure process. Once a faculty member has initiated the Sabbatical Leave Application process, their respective Department Chair and College Dean will be notified. When a faculty member has completed their sabbatical leave application, the Department Chair will be notified via an email from Interfolio, and they can then access their faculty member’s sabbatical leave application packet.

Submission Deadlines

• September 8 – All (non-departmentalized) faculty must submit their application to their Chair
• September 15 – All Chairs must submit their review to their Dean
• October 15 – All Dean’s must submit their review to the Sabbatical Review Committee
• November 15 – Committee must submit their reviews to the Provost’s Office

Responsibilities of Chairs, Deans, and Committees
