IAH Transitioning to Interfolio for Application-Based Opportunities
July 11, 2024 | Kristen Chavez
The Institute for the Arts and Humanities is pleased to announce an important update regarding our application processes. In our continuous efforts to enhance efficiency and streamline operations, we are transitioning from Qualtrics to Interfolio as our primary application platform. This change will affect applications for our two fellowship programs and the grants we administer. However, we want to emphasize that, while the platform is changing, our review and selection processes will remain substantially the same for grants and fellowships.
This decision was made to better serve you, our esteemed applicants and reviewers, by utilizing software specifically designed for application and review purposes. Interfolio offers a robust suite of features tailored to streamline the application and review process, ensuring a smoother and more user-friendly experience for all involved.
We understand that change can sometimes be daunting, but we believe this transition will ultimately benefit everyone. Moreover, we hope many of you will already have familiarity with Interfolio. Whether you’ve previously submitted applications or confidential letters of recommendation through this platform or have served on selection and review committees administered in Interfolio, we trust that this familiarity will ease the transition process for you.
Rest assured, the IAH team and Interfolio’s Scholar Support Services will be on hand to provide support and guidance throughout this transition period. We are committed to ensuring a seamless shift to Interfolio, and we are confident that this change will contribute positively to our application and review processes.
Thank you for your continued support and cooperation as we work towards enhancing our processes. Should you have any questions or concerns regarding this transition, please do not hesitate to reach out to the IAH at IAH@unc.edu.
If you plan to apply for an IAH opportunity now or in the future, please consider logging into Interfolio to confirm that your account is active:
- Log into your account via the “Sign in with email” option. Please note that you may need to create a Dossier account.
- This should take you to the application directly, but, if given the option, please access Dossier from the options provided or toggle to your Dossier by clicking on your name in the upper right-hand corner of the screen and selecting “Interfolio Dossier.”
- As an applicant, the Interfolio Dossier service will allow you to collect letters of recommendation, organize application files, and apply to IAH opportunities. Dossier accounts never expire so uploaded materials will be available at any time.
- Applying and sending your materials to Interfolio-hosted positions is always free.
