:* Access to [[Skillbook Wallet]]

There is nothing mysterious or difficult about the requirements for this title, they are a simple set of criteria. If you meet them all, you are granted the title, if not, don’t apply for Freshman yet.

=== Sophomore ===

An experienced student who ~~has attended several classes and events~~.

An experienced student who is engaging with the University community in a positive, meaningful way. A Sophomore applicant needs to provide evidence of learning by doing.

: '''Requires'''

:* Shows recent engagement within the community (examples are meaningful activity via the [http://forum.eveuniversity.org/ Forum], [http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/ Wiki] and/or [http://killboard.eveuniversity.org/ Killboard], but does not need to be any of these).

:* '''Freshman Title'''

:* Character has spent a total of six weeks in E-UNI

:* Character has positive [[Security Status|security status]]

~~:* Shown engagement within the community via the [http://forum.eveuniversity.org/ Forum], [http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/ Wiki] and/or [http://killboard.eveuniversity.org/ Killboard].~~

: '''Provides'''

:* Everything a Freshman has (Skillbook Wallet).

Line 43:

:* Ability to join the [[Wormhole Campus]].

:* Access to post events to the [[Using the Eve University Calendar|EVE University Calendar]].

This title is different than Freshman. It is not a simple matter of checking the boxes. Titles Staff attempt to evaluate your activity and make a decision about whether you have ‘enough’ activity. If we had to boil Sophomore down to one word, it would be ‘participation.’ The Sophomore applicant must demonstrate that they are actively participating in University activities. These activities can really be in almost any aspect of the game. For more information, see the [[Titles Frequently Asked Questions]].

=== Graduate ===

A fully qualified pilot, ~~ready~~ to ~~leave~~ the University ~~and forge their destiny, or stay and teach those who follow them~~. ~~'''Note:'''~~ This title ''takes ~~some~~ effort'' to earn compared to ~~Freshman and~~ Sophomore, ~~as both the introductory sentence~~ and ~~the third bullet point below describe~~.

A fully qualified pilot, recognized for their knowledge of game mechanics and their service to the University. This title takes a higher degree effort to earn compared to Sophomore, and many students do not attain it before they decide they are ready to move on to other adventures in New Eden.

: '''Requires'''

:* Have demonstrated a mastery of a range of EVE game mechanics (this can be done via the [http://forum.eveuniversity.org Forum], [http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/ Wiki] and/or [http://killboard.eveuniversity.org/ Killboard], but could also be demonstrated in a wide variety of other ways).

:* Share their knowledge and experience with the EVE University community.

:* '''Sophomore Title'''

:* Minimum of twelve weeks (3 months) total in E-UNI

:* Have demonstrated via [http://forum.eveuniversity.org Forum], [http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/ Wiki] and/or [http://killboard.eveuniversity.org/ Killboard] an understanding of a range of Eve’s game mechanics. (Wiki contributions are highly valued! Learn how to contribute to the wiki [[Wiki How To Guide|here]]).

: '''Provides'''

:* Everything a Sophomore has (Skillbook Wallet, Alpha Hangar, Research and Calendar Access, Faction hulls and modules under WSOP).

Line 60:

:*Medals cost 5 Million ISK to be awarded. A donation to EVE University to offset the 5M ISK cost is optional but appreciated. To donate to the master wallet simply type EVE University in game and auto link the corp. Then right-click and select "give money".

Just as the requirements for Sophomore are rather different from Freshman, so too are the Graduate requirements. If the key to Sophomore is ‘participation,’ the main aspects of the Graduate title are ‘mastery’ and ‘giving back.’ For more information, see the [[Titles Frequently Asked Questions]].

== Other Titles ==

Line 66:

Line 72:

Only one title should be requested at a time multiple simultaneous requests will be denied.

As we discuss on the FAQ we can only evaluate your application based on the data we can see. If you think that there are other factors that Titles Staff needs to consider, or individuals that we should contact regarding your application, please make use of the text box on the application form to give us the information that we need.
