Interfolio Fileholders are able to send you a request for a letter of recommendation by email. The email you receive will look like the email displayed below.

The email will have a two components:

Link to create an account
If you are new to Interfolio and you do not have an Interfolio Writer account, there is a link in the email that will take you to the registration page. By clicking the link featured in the email, the system will know as soon as your account is created which Fileholders have asked you to write recommendations. Those requests will be viewable in your Writer account as soon as you register.

Unique Document ID
All letter-writing requests come with a unique document ID. This ID is a six character ID made up of numbers and letters. The ID matches a letter writer to the appropriate document and Fileholder. You will need to provide the ID when you upload a letter into the Interfolio system and when you mail a paper letter to the Interfolio Paper Processing Center.

As a Writer, you may respond to an emailed request by uploading your letter or mailing your letter.
