Titles within EVE University

This page is specific to EVE University. Other corporations or groups in the game may operate differently. For a summary of EVE University's rules and code of conduct, see EVE University Rules.

Titles are sets of corporation roles such as hangar access, and have specific designations within EVE University. These should be distinguised from vanity titles which do not provide any specific roles, and the specific titles of staff.

Checking Your Own Titles

To view your active titles, open up your character's information page. Any titles you currently hold will be listed under your character's name. Here you can see that Promitheas has the Sophome title!

Progression Titles

Progression titles chart a student's progress through the University.

Freshman

A new student.

Requirements:

• One or more forum posts (Hi & Bye forum included)
• Character has been a member of EVE University for at least 7 days
• Character is at least 31 days old
• Character is registered for the uni Discord

Provides:

• Access to Skillbook Wallet
• Access to the Flight Deck

There are no further requirements for this title; they are a simple set of criteria. If you meet them all, you can apply and will be granted the title. If you do not, please wait until you meet all of the requirements before applying.

Sophomore

A more 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.

Requirements:

• Meets current requirements for Freshman, and holds the Freshman title
• Character has been a member of EVE University for at least 6 weeks
• Player shows recent engagement within the community (examples are meaningful activity via the Forum, Wiki and/or ZKillboard, but does not need to be any of these)

Provides:

• Access to the Main Hangar
• Ability to post events to the EVE University Calendar

Earning this title is different from the Freshman title: it is not a simple matter of checking the boxes. Progression officers 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. You are strongly advised to add extra detail to your application, especially if your participation isn't obvious from the forum, wiki or killboard.

Graduate

A fully qualified pilot, recognized for their knowledge of game mechanics and their service to the University. This title takes a higher degree of effort to earn compared to Sophomore.

Requirements:

• Meets current requirements for Sophomore, and holds the Sophomore title
• Character has been a member of EVE University for at least 12 weeks
• Player has demonstrated a mastery of a range of EVE game mechanics
• Player is sharing their knowledge and experience with the EVE University community or gives back to the Uni in a meaningful way such as a staff position or content creation

Provides:

• A Graduate Medal

If the key to Sophomore is ‘participation,’ the main aspects of the Graduate title are ‘mastery’ and ‘giving back’. Mastery should cover a wide portion of experience in New Eden, and giving back can take a variety of forms. Subsequently, Graduate applications may take longer to process than the other progression titles; but be assured this is only a consequence of the more thorough evaluation. For more information, see the Titles Frequently Asked Questions.

Staff & Vanity Titles

Staff titles, such as Mentor, Teacher, Professor, and a number of Officer titles, denote an individual's role as an EVE University staff member, officer, or director. Other titles (known as "vanity" titles) are just for fun, and are tailored to the individual who holds them. Staff titles are handled by their own departments and vanity titles are awarded through a different process.

Requesting a Title

To claim your title, ensure that you meet the requirements fully, then log in to the EVE University Portal using EVE SSO, click on the title you want to apply for and fill out the application. We can only evaluate your application based on the data we can see. If you think that there are other factors that Progression Staff needs to consider, or individuals that we should contact as referees regarding your application, please make use of the text box on the application form to give us the information that we need.

References

• If you think that your participation in Uni activities is not well-recorded enough for progression officers to discover through the forums, discord or killboard, etc then you may wish to include a reference that can provide them with more information. They must be current E-Uni members, and Staff or management referees are preferred. Including a reference is optional.
• It can take some time for a title to be applied due to the various checks that are required for each applicant.
• After your application has been reviewed, you will recieve an evemail from a Progression Officer regarding the outcome. If you hve been unsuccessful on this occasion, you are more than welcome to try again once you meet the criteria. If you have been successful, you should find that you have access to the relevant hangar within 30 minutes. The title on your character page is applied by a Director within a week. Reach out to the Officer who dealt with your application if you don't get hangar access or your title after a week.

Additional Characters

If you are joining EVE University on more than one character, then you can apply for the progression title that you have earned on any character. If you have earned the Graduate title, only one of your characters will receive the Graduate medal, but additional alts may receive the Graduate title. Please ensure that you state that you are requesting the title from another character in the application, and give the name of your main.
