* Unmodified and Modified Associate Professor and Professor (i.e. ASCP, PROF, CLPROF, CLASCP, RPROF, RASCP, AJPROF, and AJASCP) need to be assigned to FAP members for review and should be submitted a month prior to the FAP meeting.<\/p>\n

**All other dossiers includes unmodified and modified Assistant Professors, Instructors, secondary appointments, and change in titles. These can be submitted up to three weeks before the FAP meeting.<\/p>\n

Please note:<\/strong> Unmodified Associate Professor and Professor package submissions are reviewed\/approved by the FAP Committee and Boston University Chobanian & Avedisian School of Medicine Executive Committee. Per BU Bylaws, the packets are then forwarded to the BU President for review\/approval (this will require more time for approval consideration). If Faculty Affairs receives an incomplete package, the package may not be included until the next meeting.<\/strong><\/p>\n
