Pausing the addition of new applications and document requests for students primarily functions to allow educators to catch up on pending document requests and set deadlines for requesting addition documents or letters.


You can reach Student Applications Settings by navigating to Application Manager from your top navigation menu - Applications Manager -> Manage Documents or Send & Track. Once in the Application Manager, you will see a gear icon in the upper right hand side of the page. You will find the settings at the bottom of the page. Make sure to hit Save in order to apply your settings.
