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.
