Credentials Service

The Career Center has partnered with Interfolio, Inc., to provide a convenient way to collect letters of recommendation, transcripts, resumes, and other appropriate documents for applications to graduate/professional schools and for teaching positions without having to repeatedly gather necessary supporting documents for various applications.

What Interfolio Does For You
Because Interfolio allows you direct access to your credentials file, you can build an online portfolio that will allow you greater control over your job and graduate school application processes. If you ask supervisors or professors for recommendation letters, they can log on to Interfolio and upload letters directly into your file simply, securely and confidentially. If you need to forward your credentials, you can go online anytime and select which information you want to send, and Interfolio will deliver them through the mail or electronically via the Internet, whichever method you specify.


Features of Interfolio:

24 hour availability
Log on anytime to view a list of your file's contents,  make mailing requests and  view mailing history.

Quick turnaround
Mailing requests can be made in a matter of minutes from anywhere there is internet access. Interfolio offers a one-business day turnaround service on all mailing requests, and same-day delivery service on priority requests made before 2 PM EST--at no extra charge.   Fees for mailings range from $4 to $40.  Visit the interfolio.com for a breakdown of associated costs.

Flexibility
Credit card payments are accepted, files may contain documents other than recommendation letters (writing samples, articles, unofficial transcripts, etc.), file holders may self-manage the file content while still maintaining confidentiality, files may contain both confidential and non-confidential letters, and online storage options are offered for one- and five-year renewable contracts.

Reliability
This sophisticated technology offers security and privacy with instant back-up of data, and all inactive files are stored electronically for twenty years from the date of the last use.
