UGA Ag College offers 9 month and 12 month appointments tenure track faculty. We are currently shifting from a culture that favored 12 month FY appointments to a more research oriented culture that favors 9
month AY terms. Extension heavy appointments still tend to stick with the 12 month option, but it takes some convincing our Provost to approve those. About two-thirds of our last two years of tenure track hires have been on the nine month AY contracts.
As for conversions, we encourage faculty members to convert from 12 month to 9 month appointments, and have sometimes allowed them to do so with very little or even no loss in pay – this also helps cure salary
problems for long term professors who are feeling the effects of few raises in the past six years.
