What happens if I submitted a request in Qualtrics before September 28?

Your application will be processed. You must complete all required steps, including submission of all required information and the signed faculty agreement letter, by October 12.

What if my application is still in progress after September 28?

Applications already in progress will continue to be processed through October 12. All required application steps, including submission of required documentation and the signed faculty agreement letter, must be completed by October 12.

How will I apply for a new appointment in Workday?

What will I need to do in Workday?

You will complete tasks as part of the “hiring process,” including providing required information, signing your faculty agreement letter, and maintaining your personal and contact information once your hire is complete.

Will I receive a UCF email account?

Yes. All Affiliate/Volunteer Faculty with active appointments will be assigned automatically to receive a UCF email account and Microsoft A5 license as part of the Workday transition.
