newton13 Posted September 29, 2009 Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 i am thinking of subscribing to interfolio to organize and send my US med reference letters. Does anyone have any comments on the service? Pros or Cons? I want something that will make gathering letters easier, and allow me to store them in case I have to reapply. Also, do I have the ability to send them to schools outside the US (i know it wont forward electronically, but can you still get them to mail the letters?) Thanks!

musicaldna Posted September 29, 2009 Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 I am an Interfolio customer since 3 years and so far, I am perfectly satisfied by their service. I would definitely recommend it. As far as I know, you can send to locations outside of USA when you put in manual address yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike.lovell Posted October 4, 2009 Report Share Posted October 4, 2009 All, My name is Mike Lovell, a current member of staff at Interfolio, Inc. I saw some conversation building regarding our services, and I thought I would step in and clarify. @polarb and @musicaldna Interfolio actually does deliver to institutions internationally, which includes our closer neighbors to the north. We allow our users to manually enter in the address they need, and this includes locations outside of the US. Please do not hesitate to shoot me an email at mike@interfolio.com for additional clarification - I'd love to help! Cheers, Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rach Posted October 4, 2009 Report Share Posted October 4, 2009 McGill has told me that they accept letters from interfolio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
musicaldna Posted October 4, 2009 Report Share Posted October 4, 2009 McGill has told me that they accept letters from interfolio. I am not sure if my reviewers wrote something in the letter that pertains to applying to US schools. I wouldn't want to take the risk, though I am not sure what your case is.

I wouldn't want to take the risk, though I am not sure what your case is. I think I emailed McGill about that before I realized they needed those extra forms. But now I'm not actually going to use my interfolio account for mcgill. Was just mentioning that yes, interfolio can be used for some Canadian schools.

deeman101 Posted October 5, 2009 Report Share Posted October 5, 2009 I would use interfolio. Most schools have switched to the AMCAS letter service, but there are a few that haven't. Nothing more annoying than asking your refs to mail out an extra 4 mails individually to the other institutions. Especially when you find out that the letter for one of the institutions never arrived, and you have to bother them again. BTW I just indirectly described my situation. It sucks. Everybody is not happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
