Full Time & Adjunct Faculty Prehire and Onboarding Process
What is APOP or FPOP?
The Adjunct Prehire Onboarding Process (APOP) and the Full Time Faculty Prehire Onboarding Process (FPOP) is the automated process of onboarding new faculty into the University’s different systems. APOP and FPOP enable faculty to have access to myUSF, email, One Card and Canvas prior to their start date. The process also auto generates a new hire EPAF for the hiring department.
Who needs to go through APOP or FPOP?
All new hires and rehires who have not worked at USF for over 2 years or do not have an active employee role.
Who doesn’t need to go through APOP or FPOP?

How long will it take to process?
Each stakeholder in the PeopleAdmin posting and offer form process will approve within 24 hours.
I have submitted the offer form and need to make a change to the start date, salary or position number. How do I edit this?
If the offer form has not been fed to banner, HR employment can make the change on the offer form. If it has been fed to banner but the EPAF has not been applied, the department EPAF approver will be able to make changes to the EPAF. If the EPAF has been applied an Adjustment EPAF after the original EPAF has been applied will need to be submitted. Please contact Maggie Karaman (mgonzalez5@usfca.edu or x 2177) for assistance on making any changes to the offer forms.
When will the new adjunct or full time faculty receive access?
Full time faculty new hires receive the prehire role 90 days before their offer letter start date. Adjunct faculty receive the prehire role 30 days before the offer letter start date. The prehire role gives them access to myUSF, email, Canvas and One Card. There are three different types of roles each new hire is assigned that determines what they have access to.
Below is a breakdown for Adjunct Faculty:
PREHIRE_FACULTY is 90 days prior to Offer Letter Begin Date
FACULTY Role is 2 weeks prior to the Offer Letter Begin Date
EMPLOYEE Role is Payroll Start Date (or after depending on when the EPAF is applied).
When will I see the EPAF?
Unless the position is in the next Fiscal Year End, the EPAF will appear in the EPAF approver queue the day after the offer form was fed to banner.
Our applicant applied to the wrong posting, can an application be transferred to a different postings?
An application can be transferred if the position it’s being transferred to is the same position type as the original position. An adjunct application cannot be transferred to a full time faculty posting or vice versa.
