Interfolio is basically just a dossier service. If your letters are strong and the additional questions are not required, then I would say it's definitely worth it. To me, that's a small price to pay for peace of mind and knowing that everything will be done on time. In some cases though, they will skip the additional questions if they can (by marking N/A), which could potentially weaken your application.įor you, with 15 applications, you would end up paying about $12.33 per application to submit your letters through Interfolio. I had this happen with one of my nine apps. If they are required, Interfolio will refuse the delivery and notify you that they couldn't make the delivery. They can send letters but they will NOT answer additional questions if they are required of the recommender (for example, rate the candidate in certain areas on a scale from 1-10). There are certain situations where Interfolio will not do online deliveries. I did online deliveries which cost $8 for the first item to each school and an additional $1 for each extra letter. There's a startup fee ($35 I think) and there's a charge for each delivery. I applied to a number of schools right after I graduated from undergrad and one of the things that made it stressful/mostly unsuccessful was one of my recommenders being out of the country and cutting some deadlines REALLY close (and missing one)

This ended up being thing that made it worth it to me. No more worries about missed deadlines because you control everything. Once they submit to Interfolio, YOU control when letters are sent. Recommenders don't have to be bothered to submit multiple times. I submitted 9 applications and had 3 recommenders, one of whom basically did the same thing you describe.
