Handling External Evaluations Outside of Interfolio
Most Department Chairs choose to request external evaluation letters using Interfolio's built-in feature for doing so. However, if you prefer, you may request external letters outside of Interfolio, by email, and then upload the letters manually into Interfolio. The steps below show how to do this.
Interfolio
1. Email proposed external evaluators directly
Don't forget to use the Lehigh template for requesting external evaluations.
2. Open the case
When you have received a letter from an external evaluator, open the candidate's case.
3. Make sure you are on the Case Materials tab
Interfolio
4. Click on Add File next to External Evaluations
To find it, scroll down a bit, to the Internal Sections section.
5. Click on Browse To Upload
(or drag and drop)
6. Select a file from upload menu
7. Choose "Administrators & Entire Committee", then click on Save
8. The letter should now appear in the External Evaluations section
