Feedback

The reviewer should complete their rubric and provide any final comments. Be sure to click Finish Review when done.

 

Please note that if review mode is In Sequence then when a reviewer finishes their review the next reviewer will be notified by email. The Representative assigned to the student will be notified by email once all reviews for the applicant are completed. Completed reviews also appear in the Latest Activity and Daily Digest.

Ending a Review

A review can be ended by reviewers with that permission, before the review is completed, if necessary. For example, if an applicant withdraws their application, or if they are declined by the first reviewer.

Navigate to Review Mode for the Applicant, click the Feedback tab, and click End Review.

 

The review will then show as Ended.

 

Editing Reviews

A review can be edited by reviewers with that permission, after the review is completed, if necessary. For example, if a reviewer made a mistake, or if some new information was provided.

Navigate to Review Mode for the Applicant, click the Feedback tab, and click Edit.

 

Adding a New Review Set

A new review set can be added, after the review is completed or ended, if necessary. For example, if an applicant re-applies, or if some new information was provided, and the review process needs to be done again.

Navigate to Review Mode for the Applicant, click the Feedback tab, and click New Review Set.

 

Alternatively, navigate to the applicant profile, click the Review Mode icon, then click Add New Review Set.
