The Interfolio Blog

It's the busy season for academic applicants, and at Interfolio that means we're busy too, processing applications and making sure every document goes out on time and in a secure fashion.

We've been getting a lot of questions from our users on how Interfolio can help them make the application process simpler and less time consuming. We're not just here to send application materials, we're here to make your lives easier! So in response, we decided to take a few minutes to show you five ways using Interfolio can make the application process as painless as possible.

1. We house all your documents in one place and in digital format. That means you don't have to request multiple copies of anything. One letter of recommendation from a professor can be sent any number of times to any institution.
2. We can help you with a lot more than just letters of recommendation. You can securely upload resumes, CVs, application essays etc. You can even request transcripts from the registrar and send them out to all the places you are applying via Interfolio - no need to continue to request sealed transcripts and rely on the registrar to make sure they arrive on time.
3. We give you complete control over your documents. You can customize each of your applications, specify a different set of files to go to each school you are applying to, and keep records of what you sent where.
4. We make sure your application materials arrive safely and securely. You can track deliveries via your Interfolio login, so you know that schools received your application on time.
5. We keep your documents safe for future use. No need to ask for a new set of recommendations and transcripts in years to come. We'll help you store your important documents, and allow you to manage them and deliver them in future applications or whatever else you may need them for.
