Body
You will receive an email notification when the case is ready for review. You can follow the link in the email to access the case or log in directly to Interfolio.
You will be asked to review the materials in the candidate’s dossier. The easiest way to do this is to select “Read Case:”
You will be brought to a page that looks like this where you can navigate through the different sections of the dossier:
You can also access the Candidate Packet information by scrolling through and expanding each tab on the main page by clicking on the “>” button located on the left of the section title you would like to review. To view the documents within the section, click on the blue title of the document. This will bring you to the packet view above.
Step 2a: Completing the Dean’s Recommendation in the Interfolio Form
Once you have completed your review of the candidate, you will be required to fill out the Dean’s Recommendation form, which can be located by clicking “Case Details:”
Scroll down to the “Required Items” section and click on “Fill Out Form:”
You can edit the recommendation form as many times as you like before you submit it. Just remember to click “Save Response” each time. Once you have completed the form, select
“Submit Form” and then “Return to Case:”
Step 2b: Uploading Dean’s Recommendation
Once you have prepared the recommendation outside of Interfolio, you will need to scroll down to the appropriate Internal Sections area of the case, which is found in the “Case Materials” tab:
Select “Add File” for the appropriate section:
The default option on the window that pops up is to select from existing documents that you have uploaded to Interfolio (“Choose Existing”):
More than likely, you will be uploading new files, so select “Add New File:”
Then drag and drop the desired files from your computer into the window or click on “Browse to Upload” to navigate to files saved on your computer. Click “Add” to complete the upload.
Step 3: Sending the Case Forward
Once you have completed all your requirements, you will move the case forward to the next step, “Faculty Affairs.” Select “Send Case” and from the drop-down that appears, select “Provost’s Recommendation:”
From the resulting pop-up, select the checkbox next to “Send a message to the reviewers gaining access.” A generic email message will populate and require a subject (we recommend
NTTF Promotion – Faculty Last Name):
Once the case has been moved forward to Provost’s Recommendation, it will be forwarded to the next step in accordance with process described in the UTK Faculty Handbook.
