To ensure that a recommendation is confidential and to facilitate consistent scoring, ISTS provides an online form, like the application, which allows a recommender to enter their recommendation rather than having the applicant upload it.
If your program requires or allows a recommendation, the application will include a Supplement tab and provide instructions to enter your recommendation provider’s name, email address. An email will be sent to this person immediately from our system with instructions on how to provide the recommendation and what the deadline is for submission.
You can view your Home page to check the status of the supplement form (REQUESTED, STARTED or COMPLETE).
