Can anyone explain to me really quick how exactly to use interfolio for AACOMAS? I know it says to have my teachers upload the letters, so do i resend them their letters through interfolio?
1.) Request your letters through Interfolio which your letter writers will upload to your Dossier which are kept confidential from your reading.
2.) After the letter is uploaded by the writer and in your Dossier click the main menu on the Interfolio website and click on "Deliveries".
3.) Click on "New Delivery"

Then click on the radio button that says: You enter your recommenders’ email addresses
The online application you’re using asks you to enter the email addresses of the people who will write your letters of recommendation.
4.) Select the check box next to the letter that you are sending to AACOMAS and click the continue button.
5.) Copy the email address it should read something like the image below. This is a fictitious email address generated by Interfolio.

6.) In the AACOMAS app under the "Evaluations" section. Request a new evaluation. In the contact information for the letter writer use the fictitious email address previously generated by Interfolio. Please see the example below.

7.) Interfolio is generally pretty quick but they said that sending the letter can take 1-3 days. After the letter has been processed by AACOMAS you should see it in your application and get a notification that the letter has been processed and added to your file.
Sending it to AMCAS is much easier and I wish that AACOMAS and Interfolio could simplify the process but it is not too bad once you learn the steps.
My apologies for the image files but somethings are better explained with a picture.
Wait so i did the same thing for amcas does that mean i did it wrong?..
As long as you see it in your AMCAS app I would assume you are good to go. However, there is an easier way have Interfolio send it to AMCAS.
Is it to have them mail the letter??
Do I have to get the upgrade or can I just pay the $4 like the past posts have said? I tried to submit my requests and it just sent me an error email telling me to upgrade.
