Assign or Change an Application Status
Committee Managers or Administrators can assign or change an application status in Interfolio Faculty Search (FS) from the Applications page or the Applicant's Profile. Applicants cannot view their application statuses, regardless of the settings. Application statuses are ideal for managing large applicant pools by enabling targeted requests. For example, it is common to request letters of recommendation from shortlisted candidates by creating a shortlist status to ensure only those applicants can submit additional materials.
Application Statuses take precedence over Position Statuses.
